Notes

Recipe Copyright The Domestic Spoon. For educational or personal use only.
  • Semisweet chocolate chips: You could use milk chocolate.
  • Vanilla extract: Helps enhance the chocolate flavor. You could use almond extract in place of vanilla for even more flavor.
  • Powdered sugar: Provides stability for the fudge.
  • Chopped pecans or walnuts: Totally optional, but recommended to change up the texture!
  • Nuts are optional but I love the extra flavor they add to the fudge. Feel free to leave out or replace with any nuts you prefer.
  • This recipe can easily be doubled and placed in a 9x13 pan.
  • For a little extra flavor, try adding a pinch of cayenne to this recipe!
  • This fudge may seem a bit stickier than other fudge recipes you’ve tried. That’s OK! Trust the process and be sure and give it time to cool and solidify.
