Tips, Tricks & Storing
Here are some helpful tips for making perfect fudge every time:
• Line your pan with parchment paper. This makes it easy to lift out the fudge when it’s set.
• Melt the chocolate slowly. Use 30-second bursts in the microwave, stirring between each. This prevents burning.
• Tap the pan on the counter after pouring in the fudge. This removes air bubbles and gives you a smooth top.
For extra flavor, try these tricks:
• Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract
• Mix in chopped nuts or dried fruit
• Sprinkle sea salt on top before it sets
To store your fudge:
• Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week
• Refrigerate for 2-3 weeks
• Freeze for up to 3 months
When freezing, wrap pieces individually in plastic wrap. This makes it easy to grab a single serving later.
Remember to let frozen fudge thaw in the fridge overnight before eating. The texture will be best if you bring it to room temperature before serving.
