I can still remember my mom toiling over her special homemade fudge when I was a kid. Sorry, Mom, but I’ve found a better way. Maybe this 3-ingredient fudge recipe isn’t BETTER than your old-fashioned version, but it delivers a QUICK fudge-fix, which is basically priceless.

I don’t have any fanciful narratives to weave about this easy 3-ingredient fudge recipe. It’s pretty basic, if I’m being honest, but that doesn’t stop me and everyone else in my family from grabbing a piece or two off the plate every single time we walk by it.

it looks good and taste great

I don’t have a microwave going to try it on the stove top

What kind of butter

Can you tell me how many carbs and serving size of this recipe? I have a 6 year old daughter who has type 1 diabetes and she really likes her sweets even though i have to limit her.
Thank you so much

Can you make this using a pot and stove instead off microwave?

yes i have made this easy fudge many times but i use nestles milk chocolate chips, more sweet if you like sweet. taste just like the old plain nestles candy bars they no longer make. like a hershey candy bar only has the nestles taste. they are great.
