Easy Chocolate Fudge-just 4 ingredients and a few minutes!
I know we always seem to be rushing Holidays. It’s not even Halloween yet. And then we still have Thanksgiving to enjoy. I love a good fried turkey for Thanksgiving. There is nothing like the skin on a fried turkey. We fight over it. Trying to pick at the turkey before we even get to the table.
But I realized this morning that today is the 25th. While I don’t want to rush Christmas, I only have 60 days to plan for, shop for, decorate for, bake for…Christmas.
I’m a planner. My plans don’t always work out. Or they get changed a hundred times. But I do try to stay organized. This 60 day realization sent me into a panic mode.
I have done no planning yet. I haven’t bought a single gift. I haven’t strolled down the Christmas isles in the stores. I feel completely unprepared.
One of my favorite things to make during the holidays is candy. Peanut Brittle, Caramels, Gumdrops and especially Fudge! I love all the ways you can dress fudge up. Add nuts, drizzle some frosting on top, stir in some caramels, the possibilities are endless. You just need to start with a good recipe.
This is that recipe. Just 4 ingredients. Once made, it doesn’t require refrigeration (unless you live in a tropical climate.) A rich chocolate flavor, good texture. It ships well if you want to send it to friends and family far away. It looks good. Yeah, I know that’s not a big thing but when you’re setting it out for a party, looks matter.
You can make this fudge in just a few minutes. Make it over and over. For every party, last minute gift, or just because you need a chocolate fix to get you through any holiday stress.

I love this recipe and I really like fudge, thanks so much for sharing!
Fudge makes such a great gift! It’s nice to have a go-to easy recipe!
Love this fudge. I’m so ready to start holiday baking and gifting, my neighbors either love me or hate me for it! Great recipe, Joan, pinned.
Love how easy this fudge is, and how dark. YUM. I’m right there with ya on the candy making fun 🙂
This fudge looks great! I will be adding it to my baking list this year.
Every time I’ve tried to make fudge in the past, it never turned out…..this one sounds so simple, I figure even I can’t mess it up…… Just one question, What kind of chocolate chip should I use? (milk chocolate or semi-sweet)
Love your blog 😉
Any kind of chocolate chip will work. I have changed to dark chocolate for most of my baking needs.
LOVE!
Love how easy this fudge is! Just the kind of recipe we need for the busy holidays!
looove an easy recipe! This fudge looks so dense and chocolatey and the texture looks perfect!
That will be 2 very long hours!!!
Cant wait to make this fudge! My 3 year old loves chocolate as much as I do, so I know he’ll be excited! Silly question, can this be froze and for how long?
I have never frozen fudge, it doesn’t last that long in my house. Sorry I’m not more help. This will stay fresh in the fridge for up to a month or just on the counter for 2 weeks.
Fudge freezes just fine. Fun to find it in the freezer later!
Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! I plan on making this on Sat for a Christmas party. I will be using dark chocolate chips (my personal fave) instead of milk or semi-sweet. Also to throw an extra flare and flavor, I’m going to to top them with sea salt crystals. Thanks again!
Love the addition of the sea salt!
can you add walnuts or pecans?
Of course you can!
Can I replace foil with baking paper ?
Yes you can, the foil is just easier to mold to the dish.
Can you use white chocolate chips???
Sure you can, this recipe is a great base to change up and use any flavor baking chips you like.
