- Yes, this is a chocolate fudge recipe that uses chocolate chips that have no sugar added to them. However, they now make sugar free white chocolate chips that would probably make for a great tasting fudge as well!
- The chocolate chips in this recipe can be melted in the microwave or on the stove. If you are using the microwave method, please be sure to stop and stir the chocolate every 30 seconds. Stove top chocolate melting works best using a double boiler. Following these chocolate melting precautions will help to insure that your chocolate melted evenly and stays together without burning.
- This recipe calls for using a square 8 by 8" baking dish. However, a larger baking dish will make more fudge pieces while a smaller baking dish will make thicker ones. Also, using parchment paper that overlaps the edges of the pan will make it easier for you to remove the bars for cutting.
You may be wondering how long can you store fudge.
If stored in a covered air tight container in the refrigerator, your fudge should keep for about for a week. However, you can also freeze your fudge in properly wrapped for up to 2 months (individual works best!).
