My Favorite Kitchen Tools To Make This Recipe
From trusty pots and pans to handy gadgets, I’ve curated a list of products I use and love.
My son, Madden, loves fudge. Whenever we got out to get ice cream as a family at our favorite ice cream parlor and candy store, he always picks getting fudge instead. But let’s be honest here: for the price I pay for his fudge, I can whip up 2 batches at home.
I love that fudge has been a favorite holiday treat for generations. While traditional recipes (like my grandma’s) can be tricky, this one keeps it simple with only 4 ingredients.

How to make walnut fudge
Line an 8×8 or 9×9 pan with parchment paper. You can spray the pan with cooking spray to help the parchment paper stick to the pan. You may also use tin foil sprayed with cooking oil for easy removal.
In a medium microwavable mixing bowl, add semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream, stir together to combine—place in the microwave, and heat for 90 seconds. Immediately remove and beat together, stir in walnuts.
Spread the fudge in the prepared pan and top it with sea salt, sprinkles or walnuts.
Chill your fudge: Wrap your fudge pan with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours or until set.
