    My obsession with homemade fudge began around Christmas time. I started making fudge for Christmas in the middle of November and would freeze it until Christmas. I’ve made a dozen different varieties of fudge, from simple chocolate fudge to candy cane fudge, and of course, nutmeg fudge, among many others. So, it’s safe to say that I know my way around a fudge recipe, and this one is no exception.

    INSTRUCTIONS

    • Line a baking pan with parchment paper.

    Cutting Fudge:

    1. First, gather the fudge-cutting equipment.
    2. Then, create a template on parchment paper with 1.5 inch columns vertically and horizontally to make a grid of even squares.
      1. For more in-depth instructions, check out How to Cut Fudge into Perfect Squares.
    3. Prepare a jar of hot water and grab some paper towels, a pastry cutter or knife, and the fudge. Remove the fudge from the pan and the parchment paper.
    4. Then, place the fudge on a cutting board with the parchment paper template on top.
    5. Use the pastry cutter to score, or mark out, the outer edge of the template. 
    6. Next, use the template to mark out the columns of the grid squares.
    7. Cover your hands with gloves. Then, dip a large knife in hot water, wipe it dry, and begin cutting off the outer template lines along the edges of the fudge.
      1. Repeat the process of dipping the knife in hot water and wiping it before each cut.
    8. You should have a perfectly square block of fudge with even edges all the way around.
    9. Then, cut the first set of columns going vertically. Remember to heat and wipe the knife every time for smooth cutting.
    10. Repeat the process for the horizontal columns to create perfectly square pieces.
    11. Finally, serve and enjoy!

    Storing Fudge

    To store fudge: first, wrap it securely in parchment paper or transfer it to an airtight container. Then, label the date on the outside of the wrapping and store it at room temperature for up to 2-3 weeks. 

    To freeze uncut fudge: first, grab a freezer-safe Ziploc bag and label the date on the outside. Transfer the block of fudge to the bag and release the extra air while sealing the bag closed. Store the fudge in the freezer for 2-3 months. Move the frozen fudge to the fridge to thaw for 2 days before cutting and serving.
