This is the best chocolate fudge I’ve ever had, Love your chocolate f!!udge
I had received this recipe from my brother and sister in law prior to reading this. They told me to try using peanut butter chips with cream cheese frosting. It was delicious! So now I will try using other flavors of frosting and “chips”. So easy and fast.
I love this a lot. delicious and easy
Attempted to use white chocolate chips Placed in micro Chips on bottom of bowl started to burn at
I placed for seconds at a time but no melting just top had gotten soft
Bought another bag only placed half bag in bowl , same thing
What kind of chocolate chips are they? I find that white chocolate can be so finicky. If you notice that’s happening you can make sure to lower the microwave to 50% power. I didn’t have that happen when I made this or another batch with white chocolate I did, but all microwaves are different.
