Three-Chocolate Fudge Tips
Are fudge and chocolate the same?
Fudge and chocolate are not the same. Fudge is softer with a buttery texture, while chocolate is usually much harder. Fudge is usually sweeter and often includes additional treats such as nuts or dried berries.
Fudge recipes may also include different flavorings, such as vanilla, maple, espresso or even peanut butter.
What is the secret to making creamy fudge?
Start by combining the sugar, milk and butter in a heavy saucepan that will distribute the heat evenly. Bring these ingredients to a rolling boil to make sure the sugar dissolves completely; otherwise, your fudge could be grainy. (Check out our full guide to
how to make fudge.)
Is evaporated milk the same as condensed milk?
No—there's a
difference between evaporated milk and condensed milk. Evaporated milk lacks the sugar that’s added to condensed milk. Because sugar plays a major part in fudge-making, recipes usually call for evaporated milk as opposed to sweetened condensed milk.
