    Slow Cooker Fudge is a fun way to start exploring homemade chocolate recipes. From the Dark Chocolate Bark to the Dark Chocolate Rocky Road your sweet tooth needs to prepare to be treated! 

    For something different try our Chocolate Ripple Wreath for festive occasions. If you would prefer something zesty and fresh try the Lemon Polenta Cake or Orange Polenta Cake.

    This vanilla fudge recipe uses sweetened condensed milk, chocolate and butter it is very simple. Then we add mini eggs and sprinkles for fun and pops of colour. If chocolate fudge using milk chocolate is your favourite, caramel gets your heart started or redskin fudge sounds like it would be right up your alley, check them all out in the Slow Cooker Chocolate Fudge recipe.

    How to make fudge?

    Fudge is an easy recipe to make! Slow Cooker fudge is the easiest ever! 

    We use a combination of ingredients such as chocolate, butter, sweetened condensed milk.

    We mix these ingredients together as the chocolate melts, stirring to combine as we go. 

    Next we simply transfer the mixture into a lined slice tin and place in the fridge to set. 

    The fudge will take 1-3 hours to become fully hard. Once it has set, we can remove it from the fridge, pull the sides of paper up to remove from the pan and use a sharp knife to cut into pieces. 

    To make our fudge, in the Slow Cooker, all of the ingredients get added to the bowl with the temperature on low, lid off and we simply stir as we go! 

    Ingredients

    These additional tips are so that you can master this recipe from the 1st time you make it:

    • use a plastic spatula which won't scratch your crockpot as you stir
    • sitr the melted fudge mix every 10- 15 mins as you go
    • hold the bowl with one tea toweled hand (it will be hot) and use your other hand to stir 
    • have your slice tray lined and close so you are ready and can pour the fudge straight in
    • the fudge will start to set straight away with the heat off, work quickly for this step
    • the bowl of the crockpot will be heavy but it is a very quick process! 

    Making fudge in the slow cooker is SO fun and stress free. It will be the easiest fudge you have ever made!

    When I am mixing the mini eggs for this recipe, I crush some of them in my finger tips (or cut them in ½). The pattern for decorating can be random and hazard, sprinkle as your heart desires!

    Notes

    • Note 1 if you prefer to make Dark or Milk Chocolate Fudge, simply switch out the milk chocolate for your favourite. Keep the measurement and rest of the ingredients the same. 
    • Note 2 This is simply 1 normal sized tin of sweetened condensed milk as is from the store. It will be with the powdered or packaged milks. 
    • Note 3 This measurement is for 1 packet for speckled eggs. You can get any brand and they will be about the same. To make our fudge economical instead of using more of these chocolate eggs, we add some coloured and chocolate sprinkles. You can use whichever sprinkles you already have at home as to not purchase additional ingredients. The idea is also about different colours and textures. Cadbury mini eggs are hugely popular in Australia, but there is also a wide variety of other brands which are similar. I am using M and M crispy speckled eggs as the packet was slightly bigger than other ones available. Don't worry if your packet is a little more or less. For this as we add it at the end it is about the colour, the fun and the creativity. The amount won't change the taste of the fudge as that is set in our 3 basic fudge ingredients (ie chocolate, sweetened condensed milk and butter).
