Expert Tips and Recipe FAQ:

Can I refrigerate fudge?

Yes, you can store gluten free fudge in the refrigerator. Make sure to save the fudge in an airtight container, lasting up to 1-2 weeks. Air will dry out the fudge, losing its texture and not taste as good. You can also store the cookie dough fudge in your pantry or freezer. This is a terrific recipe if you are looking for something that you can make ahead of time and serve later.

How can I tell if the fudge has gone bad?

You can tell fudge has gone bad if it appears dry or cracked. If you notice an oily film on the top, the fudge spoils. The cookie dough fudge should never be mushy or slimy, and if it appears to be, then it isn’t edible at this point.

Typically, if the fudge has gone bad, you won’t notice a smell like other foods. Don’t risk eating it if it has gone bad. Just toss it and make a new batch.

Why did my fudge turn out hard?

Fudge can get hard if it is stirred too much during the melting process. With this recipe, you just want to heat it long enough for the chocolate to melt with the condensed milk and then remove it.

Do you have to bake the fudge?

No, you don’t have to bake it. It is so easy. You just heat up some of the ingredients on the stovetop and put them in a pan. The hardest part is waiting until it sets up so you can devour it!

Is cookie dough gluten free?

Most fudge is gluten free. I used gluten free flour for my cookie dough, and it has no eggs, so this fudge recipe is gluten free and safe to eat.

If you love buying fudge, it is important to know Is Fudge Gluten Free. I have a list of some safe brands too.
