Can I make this fudge in the microwave?

Yes, combine the chocolate chips and condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second increments and stirring until smooth.

What if my fudge doesn’t set properly?

Ensure it’s chilled completely. If it’s still too soft, leave it in the fridge for a bit longer.

Why did my chocolate seize?

Chocolate can seize if it comes into contact with water or if overheated. Be sure to keep your equipment dry and melt chocolate over low heat. (Chocolate is easy to overheat in the microwave. If you do make it in the microwave, it is important to melt the chocolate in 15 to 20-second intervals and stir in between.

What is the best way to cut the fudge?

Use a sharp knife warmed under hot water for clean cuts. This prevents the fudge from sticking to the blade.

Can I double the recipe?

Absolutely! Use a larger baking dish or two separate pans, and ensure an even heat distribution when mixing and melting the ingredients.
