The process for making this fudge is pretty simple, you’ll just need to do a few things to prep and follow some simple steps! In no time flat, you’ll be enjoying silky smooth famous Christmas fudge. I cannot wait to hear what you think!
Tips for success:
- Prep your chopped chocolate and butter before you start the boiled ingredients. You will need to give the boiling mixture your full attention.
- I keep my boiling mixture to med-low heat so that it didn’t burn on bottom, and stir occasionally.
- Boil mixture until it hits softball stage (I keep mine on until it hits 235 degrees). You want the fudge to be firm so it holds its shape.
- Allow time for the fudge to set after pouring into a pan. I like to let mine cool at room temp for an hour and then chill it in the fridge for easier slicing.
- This recipe can be enjoyed at room temperature or chilled, but I love it chilled.

Famous Christmas Fudge
Ingredients
Method
- Prepare a 9×13 by lining with parchment paper. In a large, glass or heat-proof bowl, add chopped butter and chocolate. Set aside. In a large stove pot (go for a large since the mixture will boil high at the start), add sugar and evaporated milk, whisk to combine. Bring mixture to a boil, and turn heat to med-low. Stir boiling mixture every couple of minutes as to avoid scorching on the bottom of the pan. Boil the mixture until it hits softball stage (I let mine go to about 235°)Remove from heat. Quickly pour fudge into prepared pan. Use a spatula to push fudge to edges and smooth the top. Allow to cool fully at room temperature and set.Place in the refrigerator and chill for cleaner slicing. Enjoy fudge at room temp or chilled. Store in a ziplock or airtight container.
