Tips to Make Christmas Fudge

  • Definitely use a candy thermometer like this one here. You don’t want to scorch the chocolate, so go with the old fashioned candy thermometer, trust me.
  • Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Not wax paper or aluminum foil. The only thing that hasn’t stuck (for me at least) is parchment paper. That’s because there’s no wax on parchment paper. So, you don’t have to worry about it bonding with the fudge.
  • I recommend using a baking dish with straight corners–not the curved ones. Otherwise, you’ll end up with 4 corner pieces that are rounded and all the edge pieces will have rounded bottoms on one side and it’ll all be so weird. So, if you have it, use a straight-sided baking dish to form your fudge.
