coffee fudge

Much like my morning coffee, this coffee fudge is addictive! It’s just the right sweetness, with the rich, smooth taste of coffee. All you need to do is add coffee (in all its caffeinated glory) to our vanilla fudge recipe.

how to make coffee fudge 

For this fudge recipe, choose any instant coffee brand you prefer. 

 

 

ingredients for coffee fudge:

• 2 2/3 cups (16 ounces) white chocolate chips* 
• 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
• pinch of salt (optional)
• 1 tablespoon instant coffee
• 1 1/2 teaspoons hot water

*Please note, the recipe here uses Nestle-brand white “morsels,” which is actually confectionery coating. If you’re using white confectionery coating chips (no cocoa butter listed in the ingredients), use 16 ounces. If using pure white chocolate (with cocoa butter listed in the ingredients), use 24 ounces.

 

 

 

instructions:

Line an 8-inch  square pan with non-stick tin foil or lightly-greased regular foil or parchment paper. 

 

Microwave Method:

• In a small dish, stir the tablespoon of instant coffee into the hot water and mix to dissolve. Set aside.
• Stir together the white chocolate with sweetened condensed milk in a large microwave-safe mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt, if desired. 

• Heat at 70% power for 90 seconds.
• Then remove and stir.
• Heat for an additional 45 seconds at 70% power then let the bowl sit in the microwave for about 3 minutes.
• Remove the bowl and stir until all of the chocolate melts.
• Mix in the dissolved coffee. 

• Pour the fudge into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly. 
• Refrigerate about 3 hours until firm. 
• Cut into 25 squares. 

 

Stovetop Method:

To make this easy fudge on the stovetop you will need to create a double boiler by filling a large pot with 1 inch of water and setting a snug-fitting bowl over the top. The bowl should not touch the water. 

• Pour the white chocolate and the sweetened condensed milk (and a pinch of salt, if using) into the bowl set over the pan of water. 
• Set the double boiler over low heat and allow the mixture to begin to melt.
• Stir it often until about 75% of the chocolate is melted.
• Then lift up the bowl and wipe off any steam from around the bottom of the bowl. 
• Set the bowl of fudge on your work surface and let it rest for about three minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a small dish, dissolve the coffee in the hot water. 
• Mix the chocolate and sweetened condensed milk mixture very well, and stir in the coffee. 
• Scrape the fudge evenly into the prepared pan. 
• Refrigerate about 3 hours until firm.
• Cut into 25 squares.
