Best Ever Fudge in Just 5 Minutes!
There’s just something so sinful and perfect about fudge.
I love the creamy texture and smooth chocolately taste.
Whether sprinkled with walnuts or left plain, it’s absolutely delicious.
With the sprinkling of chopped walnuts it almost reminds me of a bite of a snickers bar.
Just store your best ever fudge sealed in an air tight container and it will be great for a couple of weeks!
Or sort it out onto goody trays to share with friends and neighbors.

This looks delicious! I only make fudge once a year because I love it TOO much! I like how simple your recipe seems to make.
I love fudge! I’m going to have to try this out! I’m sure these would be great Valentine’s treats too!
This looks simple and easy to make. Perfect for my tween daughter to try, she is really into cooking right now.
Your fudge looks AMAZING! I LOVE chocolate! Definitely need to give your recipe a try.
Chocolate is a big weakness for me. I have a major sweet tooth. I like how your recipe is simple and easy to make.
Yum! This fudge looks delicious. We have a long weekend this weekend so I’m going to take some time to make it!
Hmm, marshmallows in fudge? I don’t recall ever using those in a fudge recipe!
That looks amazing. Pinned to try.

This looks double yummy! Thanks for linkin’ up with What’s Cooking Wednesday!
I MADE THIS JUST NOW BUT THE CHOCOLATE CHIPS WOULDNT MELT, ,AND IS IT ONLY ONE CAN OF THE SWEETED CON MILK
Yes, 1 (14 oz) can. I updated the recipe so that was a little more clear. Try cooking your chocolate chips with the sweetened condensed milk in :30 second intervals, stirring between each. If you overcook chocolate chips, they turn stiff and grainy which will ruin the whole recipe. I’m wondering if you may have overcooked the chocolate?
I just made this fudge again last week and added extra marshmallows once the mixture had just cooled (so the additional marshmallows wouldn’t melt) to make a “rocky road” fudge and it was as delicious and easy as always!
Can you leave the marshmallows out?
This recipe is best with the marshmallows, but you can leave them out in a pinch.
Just made and could not get marshmallow s to melt. Chocolate was smooth but marshmallow s would not melt so when I put in pan marshmallow s made it lumpy..
You’ll need to add the mashrmallows immediately when you pull your chocolate out of the microwave while everything is still hot. If you add marshmallows when it’s started to cool, it’ll make a delicious rocky road fudge!
Can I use bakers chocolate bar instead of chips?
Going to try this today! Sounds great. Thank you!
I JUST made this fudge but over a double boiler…the boiling water underneath the pan kept it warm enough to quickly melt the chocolate an marshmallows when I added them at the end.. I believe this is the key to this recipe.
I just made this fudge. Very easy and it tastes just like the old hard to make fudge recipe. Just don’t over cook it.
