FAQ
Can I use low-fat milk for this recipe?
For the best texture and flavor, whole milk is recommended, but you can use low-fat milk as a substitute, though the fudge may be slightly less creamy.

What can I do if my fudge doesn’t set properly?
If your fudge remains too soft, it may not have reached the correct temperature during cooking. You can reheat the fudge mixture and cook it for a bit longer, checking for the right consistency (soft ball stage) before setting it again.

Can I make this fudge ahead of time?
Yes! This fudge stores well and can be made up to a week in advance. Simply store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh.
