Rocky Road Fudge Recipe

Rocky Road Fudge Recipe

I’ve always been a fan of anything chocolate fudge. And Rocky Road ice cream? That’s practically my childhood soul food. That’s why turning a classic rocky road recipe into a moist and decadent fudge dessert was the perfect sweet treat I just had to try making.

These homemade fudge delights were so easy to make since they only needed six simple ingredients. For this rocky road fudge recipe, I used sweetened condensed milk, butter, and milk chocolate chips with additional toppings such as semi sweet chocolate chips, miniature marshmallows, and chopped walnuts.

The sweetened condensed milk helped with adding thickness and flavor to the fudge. It created that perfectly moist fudge base that held the chopped walnuts and mini marshmallows well. This chewy yet crunchy rocky road fudge dessert turned out so delicious that my family and friends enjoyed eating lots of it. The best thing is I didn’t even need an oven for this easy fudge recipe! Just pop the mixture in the microwave and you can get those yummy fudges, quick and easy!

The next time I make these, I’ll experiment more on the different kinds of nuts I can use as toppings. I heard that pistachios, peanuts, or almonds also make for the perfect add ons. These fudgy delights are definitely perfect for serving during gatherings or the holiday season. It’s a rich, moist, and nutty fudge that even stores well in the fridge for long periods of time.
