Milk Chocolate Fudge-smooth, creamy and easy to make!
Thanksgiving weekend was like the releasing of the bulls in Pamplona. How many recipes can we bake/cook up in one weekend? A ton, let me tell you. Part of it is we’re putting together a care package for my son-n-law in Afghanistan. We went wild, we made Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies, Swedish Christmas Cookies, Fried Pecans, Eggnog Fudge, Cinnamon Biscotti, Hot Chocolate Mix, Mexican Wedding Cookies, Pecan Pie Bars. Peanut Brittle.
This is just the beginning of my Holiday baking. Most of it will quickly leave the house. It has to. It’s just to easy to go and grab a few cookies instead of making something for lunch. I had cookies with my coffee for breakfast the other day.
This fudge never had the chance to leave the house. My son was the one who actually made it. I just supervised (sat at the kitchen table on the laptop…on facebook.) I did help clean up, I licked the spoon and pan. Someone had to do it.
I did also try to get a photo of a piece of fudge with a bite taken out of it, but…I could never get the perfect bite. I tried on four or five pieces of this fudge, honest.

I make this, but I melt the chips in the microwave. Much faster that way.

I made this fudge twice in the last week and it is soo good! The first time it tasted like Hershey’s chocolate. I made my second batch with milk and white chocolate. delish!
Joan Hayes says
Kyla, so glad you enjoyed it. Love the addition of the white chocolate!
Lana says
I made two batches of this fudge yesterday and I have to say that I love this recipe. I was shocked that it was so easy to make! I made one semi sweet batch and one milk chocolate batch, and I wasn’t 100% happy with the semi sweet. It seems to have seperated and the consistency is a little off, but it still tastes great.
The milk chcocolate on the other hand was AMAZING! It was so smooth and creamy. I’ll be using milk chocolate in this recipe every time from now on.
Thanks for such a fantastic recipe!

Instead of chocolate chips try the peanut chips for peanut butter fudge, brings back a lot of childhood memories!
Denise says
This looks amazing. Will be cooking tomorrow, I’m afraid there goes the diet. Ha ha
Melissa says
I always get a tiny bit frustrated when I read about great recipes on blogs, and there aren’t any commenters that have actually tried the recipe. So, I am here to say that this recipe was not only easy, but was also very delicious! I also followed the recipe exactly, no substitutions or alterations. Give it a try!
Joan Hayes says
Glad you enjoyed it!
Marianne DuVernet says
Can I use a substitute for the buttered aluminum foil? Like can I use wax paper or parchment paper?Should either one of them be buttered?
Joan Hayes says
Yes you can use either wax paper or parchment paper, I would lightly butter them to make it easier to release the fudge from the paper.
