World’s Best Chocolate Fudge Recipe
My husband has declared this to be the best chocolate fudge that he has ever eaten. Now, that is the highest compliment that he can give as he is a true chocoholic. My friend Alice made this World’s best chocolate fudge and passed her recipe to me. I am sharing it with you and advising that you consider making it this holiday season. My husband is still raving about how good it was.
I think it would make an excellent addition to your holidays and would also be perfect for gift giving! You could package this World’s best chocolate fudge recipe into small tins or containers and give it as gifts. I guarantee that if you have a chocoholic in your family they will love it!

Do you use the milk chocolate or semi sweet chocolate chips?
milk chocolate
what size bag of milk chocolate chips?
11.5 oz.
I am indeed a chocoholic. These sound scrumptious!
This looks so delicious.
How much is “2 sticks of butter” in cups? Thanks!
1 cup
Salted or unsalted butter?
Unsalted.
Melissa , I think on this fudge recipe instead of 5oz of cream it should be a 12oz cream. Hope this is helpful!
For the fudge – can I substitute a bag of mini marshmallows for the jar of marshmallow cream?
Thank you
To substitute for 1 (6 or 7-ounce) jar Marshmallow Creme or Fluff you would gently heat 1 (16-ounce) package marshmallows plus 3 1/2 tablespoons light corn syrup. Gently melt in a double boiler, stirring constantly. If you don’t have corn syrup use a sugar and water mix.
This looks like a good recipe. We have fudge at every holiday in my Grandmother’s honor. 🙂
I think this looks like a yummy, easy fudge recipe. How do you store it? thx
In an airtight container in the fridge.
I love making fudge for the holidays! Like how easy this recipe is.
I’d like to try this recipe. We have a lot of chocoholics in our house 🙂
How many oz is theBaker’s chocolate?
Each square is 1 oz. – Normally 1 box has 8 squares.
Do you use a 5 oz. or 14 oz. can of evaporated milk?
The 5 oz.
I couldn’t find a 13oz jar of marshmallow fluff so I used 2 7oz jars and my fudge turned a lighter color than the picture and only tastes like marshmallows. Would one extra ounce really throw it off that much?
How much chocolate did you use?
this is my favorite!
Do you have to put the Reynolds wrap on bottom before you pour chocolate in?
I have never made it without doing that.
How much does this recipe yield? Thanks.
It depends on the size you cut it in. I would say 40 pieces.
Help! My bakers chocolate comes in 4 oz box. 16 squares squares. So am I to understand use 8 oz Bakers unsweetened?
Yes!
I made this recipe for my nephews birthday and the 6 cups of granulated sugar was too much. I’ve found similar recipes and it only calls for 2-3 cups of sugar. This recipe was very grainy. 🙁 I don’t believe it would have gotten any better as we cooked it to boiling for 4 min or until the candy thermometer reached 234 F.
Has anyone else had this issue with this recipe?
