This homemade chocolate fudge recipe is hands down the best fudge on earth.
- Start by greasing the baking pan. You can use cooking spray or softened butter.
- Add 2 cups of sugar 1/2 a cup of cocoa powder and 1 cup of milk into a saucepan. Use unsweetened cocoa powder and whole milk
- Stir the ingredients together over the medium-high heat until it starts to boil.
- Now, reduce the heat to low and simmer the mixture without stirring, since stirring can crystallize the sugar.
- You’ll want to continue cooking until the mixture reaches 238 degrees Fahrenheit. Use a thermometer to measure the temperature. If you don’t have a thermometer you can test the doneness by dropping a bit of the mixture into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball and flattens when pressed between your fingers it’s ready.
- Remove it from the heat and let it cool down. We suggest you let it cool untll its temperature drops to 110.
- Once cooled, add a quarter cup of softened butter and one teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- If you’re a fan of nuts in the fudge now is the time to add them. I know I am a fan, so I am adding a cup of toasted and chopped hazelnuts.
- Beat everything together with a wooden spoon until the fudge loses its sheen.
- Transfer the fudge into the prepared pan and cool before cutting into squares.
Whenever I cook this Chocolate Hazelnuts Fudge everyone who eats it says it’s way better than the fudge shops.
