FAQs on Chocolate Fudge

1. Can I use oil instead of butter in my Chocolate Fudge recipe?

While butter adds richness and creaminess, you can substitute it with coconut oil or margarine. However, the texture may be slightly different.

2. Why is my Chocolate Fudge sticky like toffee?

Sticky fudge often results from overcooking or not stirring consistently. Ensure you cook it just until it reaches the soft ball stage and stir continuously to achieve a smooth consistency.

3. Why is my fudge still soft?

Soft Chocolate Fudge may be due to undercooking or not allowing it to cool properly. Let it set at room temperature or in a cool place for a few hours before slicing.

4. How long does Chocolate Fudge last?

Stored in an airtight container, Chocolate Fudge stays fresh for up to 2-3 weeks at room temperature. Avoid refrigeration, as it can dry out and become crumbly.
