Now let’s make some fudge! Ingredient Notes: Vanilla – vanilla simply rounds out the flavor, but it won’t make or break your fudge. No stress if you forget to add it! Salt – this recipe definitely needs salt to balance the sweetness. I prefer table salt since it will distribute nicely, but a coarser salt like kosher will do just fine as well.

Variations
There are so many fun things you can do with chocolate fudge! Add in different flavor extracts, swirl in different ingredients, top with different items like coconut, cookie crumbles, nuts, etc. This makes a unique homemade gift that’s as fancy as something purchased from a candy shop!
Can you make fudge ahead of time? Yes! Fudge can sit nicely for a while. How do you store fudge? I like to store in an airtight container. It can sit at room temperature, but I like to keep it in the fridge to hold its shape and last longer. Can you freeze fudge? Yes, you can also freeze fudge! Freeze cut squares between layers of parchment. Just let it sit at room temperature to thaw.
