Our Favorite Easy Fudge Recipe for Christmas

Who doesn’t love an easy fudge recipe at the holidays? Christmas is a perfect time to try all those recipes you’ve been longing to. If your family enjoys fudge, try these two fudge desserts. The fudge looks very festive and is a perfect Christmas dessert. If you are giving food gifts, make it with other candies and cookies. Put several in all your Christmas packages to wow your family and friends. Candy cane fudge is a welcome change from the regular chocolate with nuts fudge everyone else makes. We also love a variation of a traditional chocolate fudge with a unique add in – pretzels!

We have two delicious easy fudge recipes to try! The first is a chocolate fudge recipe with pretzels and the second is a vanilla fudge recipe with peppermint candy canes. Let us know which one is your favorite!

Vanilla Fudge Recipe with Candy Canes Directions:

  4. When the vanilla chips have completely melted, add the peppermint extract, candy canes, and food coloring.

This Rootbeer Float Fudge recipe is a twist on a classic fudge recipe.

This Christmas dessert will help you to get into the Christmas spirit. It has a hint of mint flavor that is enhanced by the crushed candy canes on top. If you are taking the fudge to a holiday party, make lots of it because chances are people will gobble it up. You can also give it a twist for a special outcome. You can make a swirl effect instead of mixing in the food coloring before putting it in the refrigerator.
