    Tips and Alternatives

    • White chocolate: You can replace the dark chocolate with white chocolate if that is better for you.
    • Nuts: Add some nuts, such as almond, pistachio, or walnut.
    • Marshmallow: I like to use vegan-friendly marshmallows in all my marshmallow recipes. However, feel free to use any kind you prefer. Just use the mini marshmallows because they give the fudge a better texture.
    • Parchment paper: To prevent the fudge from sticking in the pan, you have to line the pan with parchment paper.

    Recipe FAQs

    How to store and freeze chocolate fudge?

    Store chocolate fudge in a well-sealed container in room temperature for up to 3 days, in the fridge for up to 7 days, or in the freezer for up to two months.

    Dark vs semi-sweet chocolate, what to use in making fudge?

    Using dark or semi-sweet chocolate is only a personal preference. For me, I love to make this fudge using 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate plus ½ cup dark chocolate.

        Hi Olivia,
        fudge can last up to a week in the fridge, just stor it in an airtight food container.
