  • Work quickly when combining the sugar mixture with each of the chocolate and butterscotch chips. 
  • Pour the butterscotch Layer into the pan and then top with the chocolate layer.
  • Allow fudge to chill completely before slicing. 
  • Run your knife under hot water and dry before slicing.

How to Store Fudge:

Fudge can be stored at room temperature but will stay fresher if stored in an airtight container. It should stay fresh for up to three weeks if refrigerated. 

I remember my mom making fudge and all sorts of candy for Christmas every year. I love following that tradition and sharing it with my family, neighbors and friends.

It’s never too late to start a holiday tradition and holiday baking is one of my favorite things. The holidays are insanely busy and I never know how I’m going to get it all done but it all works out.

I’m always glad that I took the time to bake and share a few cookies or old fashioned fudge with those I love. Really that’s what is important not so much the dollars that we spend.

  1. I made this recipe last night and am very sad by its results. I followed this recipe to the T and both layers are very granulated. I was hoping to surprise my grandmother with this recipe 🙁

    1. I’ve been making this for years! The recipe comes from the back of a bag of Nestlé toll House chocolate chips. If you want soft fudge you have to pay close attention to how long your sugar and butter mixture boils. I set a timer for nine minutes. (After you make it a few times you’ll be able to tell by the color when it’s ready. ) The longer it boils the harder the fudge will turn out. Shorten the time, softer fudge.
