Notes
- I have used salted butter in the recipe as I prefer sweet and salty fudge. If you like just sweet fudge use unsalted butter in the recipe and if using unsalted butter and still like salty fudge add pinch (approx ⅛ tsp) of salt.
- This fudge can be stored in airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, upto 1 week in refrigerator and upto 3 months in freezer.
- Frozen fudge can be thawed by placing it in refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.
- Depending on the pan you use to spread the fudge mixture, the thickness of fudge will vary.
- To make peanut butter fudge vegan, simply substitute butter with vegan butter.
