Dorothy’s Expert Tips

- Packages fudge makes a great gift.
- Leftover fudge keeps in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or you can freeze it for up to a month.

This is absolutely the easiest fudge that I have ever made. I made a chocolate version , but I also made one with peanut butter chips and vanilla frosting. Tasted like peanut butter fudge and so easy!
Hi Cheryl, so glad you like the recipe! Thanks so much for sharing!
Love this recipe. I’ve been making it for several years. My favorite is to divide the white frosting and vanilla chips into 3 separate dishes of 1/3 each. Then I color one red, one green, and leave one white. I then twirl them together once in the pan for a marble effect. With the 3 colors it makes a very pretty Christmas fudge.
Love it! Thanks for sharing, JoAnn. Glad you like the recipe!
So good
Glad you like it!
