Green Fudge

Have you ever noticed that there are so many great things to pair with chocolate? Peanut butter, caramel, vanilla, and of course, MINT. This mint chocolate fudge is especially great for Christmas and St. Patrick’s Day because of the great green color. But, of course, it can be enjoyed all year round. The mild mint flavor pairs perfectly with rich milk chocolate for a delicious treat that is absolutely irresistible.

Ingredients in this Mint Chocolate Fudge Recipe

Milk chocolate bar (such as Hershey bars, broken into pieces) – for the chocolate layerAndes Mint Chips (or chocolate & mint chips) Plain white chocolate, try to find actual chocolate bars, not bark – for the mint layerWhite chocolate chipsButterMarshmallow fluffSugarEvaporated milk or sweetened condensed milkCreme de menthe or mint extract (do not use peppermint extract)

Steps for Making this Fudge

In a large mixing bowl, combine milk chocolate bar pieces, Ande’s Mint Chips, four Tablespoons of butter, and half of the marshmallow whip. Set aside.In a separate large mixing bowl, combine white chocolate bar pieces, white chocolate chips, four Tablespoons of butter, and remaining marshmallow whip. Set aside.In a LARGE heavy saucepan (it will boil up high), combine sugar, evaporated milk, and creme de menthe. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat. Stir CONSTANTLY for four minutes.Pour about a cup of cooked mixture into each bowl of chocolate at a time, stirring as constantly as you can for each bowl until you melt all the chocolate (you might want a helper for this part). Try to divide the cooked mixture between the two bowls as evenly as you can.Stir each bowl until all chocolate is melted and smooth.Pour about ⅓ of each type of fudge at a time into a prepared 13×9 inch glass baking dish, greased with butter or cooking spray. Using a knife, swirl the two types of fudge together to make a pretty, swirled design. Some people line the pan with foil or parchment paper, but this can make swirling more difficult.Bring to room temperature, then cover and chill.

Substitutions or Additions for Mint Fudge

If you can’t find the Andes mint chips or chocolate mint chocolate chips for the chocolate mixture, you can just use milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips and add a little extra creme de menthe. For the white chocolate, you can use white chocolate bars or even baking chocolate, just try to avoid using chocolate bark. It is too waxy and will mess with the consistency.This fudge is slightly on the softer side, so if you want it to be a little firmer, boil the milk and sugar for a minute longer. Everyone likes their fudge a little differently, so experiment to your liking.To make a gluten-free recipe, just be careful about your chocolate.  The really large Hershey bars have gluten in them (why? I have NO idea). The smaller ones are fine, though and most other chocolate won’t have gluten, so just be sure to check those labels just to be sure!
