Author: Erin Indahl-Fink
Cook Time: 30 min

​Ingredients:

​
  • 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 tsp. milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • 2 tsp. lemon zest (zest of 1/2 lemon)

Buttered Rum Fudge

Picture
Serves: 36 pieces
Author:  Julie Kotzbach

Ingredients:

​
  • 3 1/2 cups (22-24 ounces) white chocolate chips
  • One 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon rum extract (plus more to taste)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • Cinnamon, for garnish

​Instructions:

​
  1. Line an 8-inch x 8-inch baking dish with foil, pressing it into all of the corners and allowing it to hang over the edges a bit. Set aside.
  2. Place the white chocolate chips in a mixing bowl.
  3. Pour the sweetened condensed milk into a microwave safe bowl and heat in the microwave for 1 minute 30 seconds.
  4. Carefully remove the bowl and immediately pour the milk over the chocolate chips.
  5. Allow the chocolate chip to melt for 1 minute before stirring. Stir until combined and smooth. (There should be no chocolate chip chunks hanging out.)
  6. Pour in the rum extract and butter and add the salt. Carefully mix until completely combined. This will take a couple of minutes, don't rush it. Taste the fudge and adjust the rum extract (adding more as needed) until the flavor is to your liking.
  7. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared dish. Use a rubber or offset spatula to smooth the fudge into an even layer. Tap the dish on the table a couple times to remove any bubbles.
  8. Sprinkle a light dusting of cinnamon all over the top of the fudge.

​Classic Fudge

Picture
​Serves: 32
Author: Awesomeon20
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: 15 min

Ingredients:

  1. 2 cups sugar
  2. 10 large marshmallows
  3. 5.3 ounces evaporated milk (see note)
  4. 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
  5. 1/2 cup (4 ounces) butter
  6. 1 tsp vanilla

​Instructions:

​
  1. It's important to have everything ready once you turn on your heat, so measure out our chocolate, butter, and vanilla in a bowl and set aside. Spray an 8x8 baking pan with non-stick spray.
  2. Add sugar, marshmallows, and evaporated milk to a large sauce pan. Turn the heat under the pan to medium high and start stirring. Keep stirring until the mixture starts to boil.
  3. Once you reach a boil, continue to cook and stir for 8 minutes. Whatever you do, don't stop stirring. When 8 minutes is up, remove the pot from the heat, but don't stop stirring.
  4. Either grow a third arm or get a helper to carefully add the chocolate, butter, and vanilla to the boiling sugar mixture. Be careful. You do NOT want to get this molten mixture on your skin. Keep stirring until everything is melted and blended.
  5. Pour the mixture immediately into the waiting baking pan and refrigerate for several hours or overnight to set.
  6. Cut into small pieces and try really hard not to eat every last bit.

Double Chocolate Peppermint Fudge Truffles

Picture
Serves: About 50
Author:  Lyuba Brooke
Prep Time: 4 hours
Cook Time: 10 mins

​Ingredients:

  • Fudge:
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 cups milk chocolate chips (dark or semi-sweet can be substituted if preferred)
  • 7 oz jar of marshmallow fluff
  • 1½ cups Andes peppermint crunch baking chips
  • Truffles:
  • 18-20 oz white chocolate melting chips
  • 10-12 peppermint candy canes
  • Recommended tools:
  • Double boiler
  • Cookie scoop

Instructions:

  1. Fudge:
  2. Fit a 9x9 baking dish with parchment paper and grease the paper all over the bottom and sides with some butter (or non-stick baking spray), so fudge doesn't stick.
  3. Place chocolate chips and marshmallow fluff in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
  4. In a bottom-heavy sauce pot, over medium heat, start melting butter and add sweetened condensed milk. Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly so that condensed milk doesn't burn.
  5. Pour hot condensed milk mixture into the bowl and whisk until all smooth. (You will want to start whisking slowly, so the hot mixture doesn't splatter on you, and then increase your whisking speed to get the mixture nice and smooth. If using a metal mixing bowl, you may want to hold it with an oven mitt while whisking. If whisking starts to get a little tough, switch to a rubber spatula.)
  6. Quickly fold in peppermint crunch baking chips, pour your fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly. Let it stand on the counter until it cools to room temperature. Then, place the pan in the refrigerator to chill and firm up for a couple of hours. (If you want to chill it overnight, you will need to cover it in saran wrap so it doesn't start to dry.)
  7. Once cooled, take the fudge with parchment paper out of the pan. Using a cookie scoop, scoop out chocolate fudge and shape them into even fudge balls. Place them on a large cutting board covered with parchment paper. (You may have to use two boards.) Place them into a freezer for 15-20 minutes.
  8. Unwrap candy canes and place then into a ziplock bag. Crush candy canes with a flat side of the meat tenderizer. Place crushed candy canes in a bowl on your work station.
  9. Melt the chocolate melts according to the package instructions. (I definitely recommend using a double boiler.)
  10. Using a fork, dip each fudge ball into chocolate, covering it completely. Gently shake off excess chocolate by moving the fork up or down and gently tapping the fork on the side of the double boiler.
  11. Quickly sprinkle it generously with crushed candy canes and lay it back on the parchment paper (you'll need a toothpick or something small to help you slide the truffle off the fork). Repeat with all the fudge balls.
  12. Store in the refrigerator, covered or in a container with a lid.
