Super Easy See’s Fudge Recipe
This chocolate fudge recipe is the easiest, most foolproof recipe ever. It comes out smooth every time, never grainy. I have tried other recipes that take much longer to prepare and trust me, it is so unnecessary. You really don’t need more than 15 minutes for perfect fudge. Ingredients include semi-sweet chocolate chips, marshmallow cream, evaporated milk. It can be made with or without nuts.
Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge Swirl
This Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge swirl is quite possibly heaven on earth. Think Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup in fudge form. At first glance, I know this looks like a complicated recipe but it is actually very easy. This is a variation of our See’s Fudge recipe. And similarly, this one can be made with under 20 minutes of prep time.
Vanilla Fudge
This is the easiest vanilla fudge recipe ever! You don’t have to stress about getting the perfect “soft ball stage.” In addition, no candy thermometer is needed. You will get perfect fudge every time with the following three ingredients – white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract. Because of the simpleness of this recipe, you’ll find yourself making it over and over.
Marshmallow Rocky Road Fudge
Rocky road fudge is a staple in our house! We love to make this as a family during the holiday season. Fluffy mini marshmallows surrounded by rich, sweet chocolate with just the right amount of walnut crunch. This homemade fudge recipe is an old favorite family recipe that will be carried on through generations.
German Chocolate Fudge
This is the best, most creamy, melt in your mouth fudge I have ever had. And the German chocolate topping just makes it over-the-top good! You get the best of German Chocolate Cake and creamy fudge in every bite! This makes a beautiful gift or dessert during the holidays.

This coconut fudge is super rich and perfectly dense and creamy. Plus, it is SO easy to make! You can whip up a batch of this in no time at all. It is also naturally gluten free! Definitely a winner all-around!
Mint Chocolate Fudge
Have you ever notice there are so many great things to pair with chocolate? Peanut butter. Caramel. Vanilla. And, of course, MINT. This mint chocolate fudge is a great Christmas fudge recipe, or St. Patrick’s day treat because of the great green color. But of course it can be enjoyed all year round. The mixture of mild mint flavor with rich milk chocolate is a delicious treat that is absolutely irresistible.
