For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Ensure the mixture reaches the soft ball stage for the best fudge texture. Under-cooking will result in a soft, gooey fudge, while over-cooking will make it hard and crumbly. For a marbled effect, swirl in extra melted chocolate or peanut butter after pouring the fudge into the pan. Chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips, or sprinkles can be added to the top of the fudge before it sets for extra texture and flavor.

01 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Prepare the Pan (5 minutes): Lightly butter a 9x9 inch baking pan. Lining the pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang, makes removal and cutting easier.
02 Step
Recipe View 15 mins Combine and Boil (15 minutes): In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, and cocoa powder. Stir continuously over high heat until the mixture reaches a rolling boil. A rolling boil is when the mixture continues to bubble vigorously even when stirred.
03 Step
Recipe View 12 mins Soft Ball Stage (10-15 minutes): Reduce the heat to medium and continue to cook, stirring frequently to prevent scorching, until the mixture reaches the soft ball stage. To test, drop a small amount of the mixture into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft, pliable ball that flattens when removed, it's ready.
04 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Incorporate and Cream (5 minutes): Remove the saucepan from the heat. Immediately add the peanut butter, margarine, and butter (and sea salt, if using). Beat vigorously by hand until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and fully combined. Work quickly, as the mixture will start to set as it cools.
05 Step
Recipe View 2 hrs Set and Cool (2 hours): Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Allow it to cool completely at room temperature. This usually takes at least 2 hours, or longer.
06 Step
Recipe View 5 mins Cut and Serve: Once the fudge is firm, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and serve. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
