🔪 How To Make Chocolate Frosting Fudge

Microwaving in increments is necessary to keep your chocolate chips from burning. Grab a microwave-safe bowl, silicone spatula, and an 8x8 baking dish.

This fudge recipe makes 64 squares if you get perfect 1" squares cut from your 8x8 baking dish. However, I always cut larger pieces, so your yield may vary based on the size of your final chocolate fudge frosting fudge pieces.

Melt Your Chocolate

1. Melt. Place 12 ounces of chocolate chips into a microwave-safe mixing bowl and heat in 30-second increments, stirring between each heating, until melted.

Make The Fudge

1. Mix in frosting. Add a 16-ounce tub of frosting to the chocolate chips and stir to combine until evenly distributed. Transfer the batter to a greased 8x8 baking dish (*see note). Add any desired toppings, then cover with aluminum foil or cling film to set.
2. Set. Let your fudge sit at room temperature until it sets firmly. If time is a concern, you may refrigerate it for 30 minutes to quick-set your fudge. 
3. Serve. Slice into 1" squares then serve.

There's no doubt this fudge is totally chocolatey and delicious as-is. Enjoy it with a glass of milk, vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of toffee sauce, or some fresh strawberries!

💭 Angela's Pro Tips & Notes

• To grease your baking dish you may use butter, non-stick cooking spray, cooking oil, or line it with aluminum foil.
• I don’t normally recommend refrigerating fudge to set, but it works for this recipe/method.
• Storing: Store at room temperature for 1 month (refrigerating the fudge will dry it out).
• Freeze individually wrapped pieces or tightly wrapped slabs of fudge for up to 3-4 months. Thaw on the counter at room temperature.
