Storage and Serving Tips

After making this luscious fudge, you might be wondering about the best way to store it. Keep the fudge in an airtight container to maintain its freshness. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to two weeks, although it’s unlikely to last that long once your family gets a taste of it! If you want to keep it longer, you can freeze it for up to three months. Just remember to slice it into squares before freezing to make it easy to grab a piece whenever you want.

When serving, consider adding a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of extra caramel sauce on top for an even more decadent experience. This fudge pairs wonderfully with coffee or a glass of milk, enhancing the overall enjoyment of this sweet treat.

Ingredients

Fudge Base

1 cup milk chocolate chips

Make sure to gather all your ingredients before you start!

Instructions

Prepare the Pan

Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper for easy removal of the fudge.

Melt the Chocolate

In a saucepan over low heat, melt the milk chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter, stirring until smooth.

Add Snickers and Peanuts

Remove from heat and fold in the chopped Snickers bars and peanuts until evenly distributed.

Layer the Fudge

Pour half of the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly, then drizzle half of the caramel sauce over the top. Pour the remaining fudge mixture over it and top with more caramel sauce and peanuts.

Chill and Set

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm. Once set, cut into squares and enjoy!

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.

Variations to Try

While this Snickers Fudge Recipe is a classic, you can easily customize it to suit your taste. For instance, try adding a sprinkle of sea salt on top for a salty-sweet twist. You can also mix in other candies, such as Reese’s Pieces or M&Ms, to create your own unique version of this fudge.

If you prefer a nut-free option, simply omit the peanuts and substitute them with additional chopped Snickers bars or use a different type of candy that you love. The flexibility of this recipe allows you to experiment and discover your perfect combination!

Pairing Suggestions

This indulgent fudge pairs beautifully with a variety of accompaniments. For a classic pairing, serve it with a cup of hot cocoa or coffee, allowing the flavors to complement each other. If you’re looking for something colder, a scoop of vanilla or chocolate ice cream can elevate the experience, creating a delightful contrast to the rich fudge.

Another great option is to enjoy this fudge alongside fresh fruit like strawberries or bananas. The freshness of the fruit balances the sweetness of the fudge, making for a well-rounded dessert experience that everyone will love.
