You’ll even have extra sandwich cookies for eating, and forgetting to include in your photo shoot. You’ll replace them instead with a glittery purple takeout box and all will be right with the world. And you’ll still have fudge, which is really the most important thing anyway.

I couldn’t believe how easy this was to make! I did complicate things slightly by using a double boiler so I could take pretty pictures for you, but you can totally use the microwave and save a few minutes. And you don’t have to cut the final product into cutesy little hearts to top adorable pink-striped paper straws, squares are just fine, but fudge pops are pretty and if they make you smile, go for it. They made me happy and left me with little scraps to eat, which made me happier.

This fudge is incredible! So so good and not too sweet thanks to a secret ingredient you may not believe… cream cheese! The tartness in the cream cheese helps temper some of the sweetness in the condensed milk and white chocolate. Both are super sweet on their own, and together it can be overwhelming without something to add a little balance. The cream cheese isn’t noticeable at all in the final product, and I think it actually helps keep the fudge really nice and creamy.

When I made the recipe, I used just a pound of chocolate, and the fudge set enough that I was able to cut it as you can see in the photos, but since I personally prefer something a bit more sturdy, I would add a little additional more chocolate next time to the recipe and so the instructions below are adjusted accordingly.

As for what kind of chocolate to use… I recommend a couverture chocolate. Couverture chocolate is baking and melting chocolate that doesn’t have a coating like chocolate chips and isn’t a candy coating compound like candy melts. It is designed for making ganache and other chocolate confections. You can typically find it in the baking section of your grocery store in either chunks you’ll have to chop, or convenient discs or pellets that you don’t. Can you guess which one I look for? 😉 In a pinch, chips or even white chocolate candy bars could work, but since the chocolate is the star in fudge, the better quality chocolate you use, the better the final product. For this fudge, I used Guittard chocolate. This is not sponsored, this is just one of the brands I like.

Store your fudge in the refrigerator up to one week, if it lasts that long!
