CHRISTMAS FUDGE

This Microwave Fudge is great for a Christmas treat because it is super quick and easy to make. More time to spend with friends and family.

A simple fudge base made with chocolate chips and store bought frosting. Then just add in what you like in your fudge.

INGREDIENT OPTIONS:

NUTS – Leave the nuts out completely or use your preferred nuts. Walnuts, pecans, peanuts, almonds, etc.
CANDY – This fudge is great with sprinkles. You can also add candy, M&M’s or Reese’s Pieces taste fantastic in fudge.
CHOCOLATE CHIPS – Semi-Sweet or dark chocolate chips work in place of milk chocolate chips.

DOES FUDGE NEED TO BE REFRIGERATED?

Fudge doesn’t require refrigeration. Storing fudge in the refrigerator will eventually dry it out.

If your house stays on the warm side, I suggest storing fudge wrapped in wax paper in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Otherwise it could become too soft.
