I hope you have will power, because this stuff is perfect, smooth, deep chocolate. It’s easy to make and turns out every time.
Gather up your ingredients:
1 (12 oz) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup milk chocolate chips (not the full bag you see in the pic)
2 Tbs. milk
1 can sweetened condensed milk
4 tsp. instant coffee dissolved in 1 Tbs. water OR 1 Tbs. coffee liqueur
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup nuts, optional
Dig in the very back of your pantry for the coffee liqueur. Wipe the dust off the bottle and take a good sniff. Ponder how good this would be to pour into hot chocolate.
Okay, back to the recipe. Put all the ingredients (except the nuts) in a heavy saucepan and melt them together over low heat. When it’s good and smooth, pour it into a foil lined pan (add the nuts first if you’re using them). I have made this many times with the instant coffee and it’s also good that way, so if you don’t have liqueur, don’t feel you need to buy any.
Pop the pan into the frige and chill for about 3 hours. Turn the fudge out onto a cutting board and peel off the foil. Cut into small squares. Wetting the knife helps this process go smoother. Store in the fridge and try not to eat the whole pan by yourself!

I love your new Christmas-y background!
Awww… Came in just to see this yummy-looking post!
Looks delicious!
Thanks for popping by my blog too!
Get thee behind me! That is so evil! Think of all the weight I’ll gain! When I eat it all by myself. :-l
Seriously, thanks! This is going on my holiday baking list right.now. How convenient that I have my shopping list right beside me.
Hi – thanks for the blog visit.
This does look great. I’m already having trouble resisting all the cookies around. (And fudge is so much better than a cookie).
yummy that looks very good.
Oh my goodness. Yum. I must try this. Or not.
Thanks for the comment love!
I’ve always wanted to make fudge and this recipe seems to be fool proof, even for me.
Over from SITS! You said you were headed to the grocery store…good luck…I am considering braving it myself today.
The fudge looks divine…..on my list to make it
Would you mind if I just ate the chocolate chips? By themselves?
I’m a sucker for chocolate. Thanks for stopping by my blog, I DID enjoy my shopping (sort of – it was freezing!)
YUM!!!!!!!!!!!!
First of all, thankyou for coming by my blog and leaving such a nice comment. It was appreciated. Secondly, now I’m hungry!!! Nice to meet a fellow foodie!

Yum! Looks really good. And terrible, terrible for my diet because I am the only one in my house who eats fudge. You have some wonderful recipe ideas and I have a bloggy award for you over at my blog!
Forgive me but I just found your blog. Okay now that's outta the way…is it just me or does the pic show sweetened condensed milk & regular milk but the recipe only says 2 tbs milk.
I want to try this but I'm confused.
Brandy, it is only 2 Tbs. of regular milk. I just put the whole jug in the picture. Sorry to confuse you!
So…getting back to Brandy’s question…I am also wondering why the picture shows the can of sweetened condensed milk. It is not in your ingredient list.
If it is part of the recipe that got left out of the ingredient list, could you please tell me how much to include. Thank you – I’m anxious to make this!!
Lois, oops! Thanks for catching my mistake. Yes, there is a can of sweetened condensed milk in the fudge. I’ll fix that in the ingredient list. Sorry for the confusion.
