Tips:

  • Stir the fudge constantly to prevent it from crystallizing.
  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure the fudge reaches the correct temperature (234°F/112°C).
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Pour the fudge onto a greased baking sheet and let it cool completely before cutting it into pieces.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of semisweet chocolate.
  • For a nutty flavor, add chopped walnuts or pecans to the fudge.
  • For a chewy fudge, add marshmallows to the fudge.
  • For a creamy fudge, add cream cheese to the fudge.
