Crispy top, with an ooey, gooey, chocolaty fudge center. I hope that this turns out as well for you as it does for me! I place a large piece of aluminum foil or a cookie sheet under my 9x13-inch pan, as it can sometimes get a little bit of overflow. Worth the little bit of mess!

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup butter, at room temperature

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups rolled oats

Tips:

  • Use old-fashioned oats for a chewier texture.
  • Toast the oats before using to enhance their flavor.
  • Use a good quality unsweetened cocoa powder for a rich chocolate taste. If the cocoa powder you have is sweetened, you may need to reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing will result in a tough fudge.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it into squares. This will help to prevent the fudge from crumbling.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
