  • Pour about a cup of cooked mixture into each bowl of chocolate at a time, stirring as constantly as you can for each bowl (you might want a helper for this part). Try to divide the cooked mixture between the two bowls as evenly as you can.

Notes

Recipe Tips:

  • If you can't find the Andes mint chips or chocolate mint chocolate chips, you can just use regular chocolate chips and add a little extra creme de menthe. For the white chocolate, you can use white chocolate bars or even baking chocolate, just try to avoid using chocolate bark. It is too waxy and will mess with the consistency.
  • This fudge is a slightly on the softer side, so if you want it to be a little firmer, boil the milk and sugar for a minute longer. Everyone likes their fudge a little differently, so experiment to your liking.
  • To make a gluten-free recipe, just be careful about your chocolate.  The really large Hershey bars have gluten in them (why? I have NO idea). The smaller ones are fine though, and most other chocolate won't have gluten, so just be sure to check those labels just to be sure!
