Old Fashioned Chocolate Fudge is the best and creamiest chocolate fudge, made the old fashioned way. The perfect homemade chocolate candy.
I’ve been a big fan of candy for a long time, especially anything chocolate, like these easy to make homemade filled chocolates or these Italian / Baci chocolate cookies.
Old-fashioned chocolate fudge is all a homemade fudge should be, so get your candy thermometer ready.
I’ve been searching and searching for the chocolate fudge I tasted when I was about 8 or 10 years old, if you can believe it! That fudge melted in your mouth and was just a little crumbly.
Ingredients
2 cups of sugar
4 tablespoons of Hershey’s Cocoa
1 stick of salted butter
Carnation 5oz can of evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
nuts are optional
Itinerary
Mix the sugar and cocoa in a saucepan, then add a stick of butter and the can of evaporated milk, and stir until the mixture begins to boil.
Stir continuously for 7 minutes, then remove from the heat and add the vanilla, then stir the mixture continuously for 3 minutes, then pour into a buttered baking dish to set.
Good fudge in less than 20 minutes!
Hershey’s old-fashioned fudge has always been my favourite, but it was so difficult to prepare it properly.
Thank you for sharing a recipe that tastes the same but is so much easier! It turned out perfect the first time!

Thanks for the recipe just in time for the holidays
Thank you so much for the fudge recipe
Add Peanut butter
I’ve made it twice I can’t get it to set.? what am I doing wrong?
maybe you’re not letting it boil long enough
Well if mine doesn’t set,I use it for hot fudge sauce over Vanilla ice cream instead of wasting it!
If you cook it on higher heat it will set .
Waste of time and sugar. gritty as a sandy beach
I did exactly as recipe said …turned out rock hard before 8 could even get it in the pan…gonna try another day..hope second batch turns out.
I have made it 4 times. First time was perfect, last time did not set up completely (like the first time) but still ate it and it was still good
I went by directions but it didn’t set up
What is a stick of butter in cups
A sitck of butter is 2/3 of a cup.
1/2 cup
Cocoa fudge is gritty. That is why it’s so good. If you want smooth fantasy fudge is what you want.
What size pan do you use?
we have always used a pie pan
If it does not harden it is called spoon fudge
