You can use sugar free ingredients… cost more but worth it….
I made this last Christmas, added some chopped pecans, and was amazed at how good it was and pretty!!!
Can you use almond bark?
I haven’t tried it that way so I can’t say for sure.
Yes. I make this recipe and add 4 squares of the almond bark to melt with the chocolate chip pieces it helps make it firmer. I use i bag peanut butter chips, 1 can of cheap white icing and 4 almond bark squares, and sometimes a heaping spoon of crunchy peanutbutter for the crunch. These ingredients are easy to use and any combination works.
can you use chocolate frosting instead of strawberry?
Sure can! This works with any combination!!
I live in Australia and we dont that sort of frosting can you suggest something else that would be great.
I hope one of our readers has an idea for you! It is similar to a buttercream frosting but less buttery…. if you have a cupcake frosting you usually use, you could possibly try that. I’m not sure if it will work or not but please let us know!!
Lina Bloomfield – you can get ready to use frosting in the cake isle at woolies or coles. Betty Crocker does an amazing one, you can also get Cream Cheese frosting.
This recipe should work just fine. https://www.spendwithpennies.com/fresh-strawberry-buttercream/
You could use strawberry chips (like chocolate chips) and a can of sweetened condensed milk. In the US an example would be Eagle Brand, (not plain condensed milk). Use the same method – – heat chips in microwave 60 sec. Stir, add sweetened condensed milk, microwave 60 seconds, stir, repeat 30 sec. at a time until completely smooth. Have an 8×8 pan sprayed or lined with parchment or foil ready.
You can have a really nice mint chocolate chip fudge if you can find the mint chips. Same method. Have 1/3 to 1/2 bag of mini choco chips to stir in AFTER the other ingredients are completely smooth and the temp is beginning to come down a little so the chocolate will hold it’s shape. It is gooood and very pretty.
Great idea! Thank you for sharing Terry!
I LIVE IN AUSSIE AS WELL I THINK U CAN USE THIS BUT ALL U DO IS USE THE WHITE FROSTING AND ADD SOME STRAWBERRY FLAVOR TO IT AND THEN PROCEED WITH THE REST OF THE RECIPE,,, NOT HARM IN TRYING THIS OUT,,,,
Sounds like it would work perfectly! Let us know how it turns out for you!
I tried an all-natural version of this with a bag of caramel frosting and some white chocolate chips, both from Whole Foods. It was a 12-oz. bag of frosting (and 12-oz. bag of white chocolate chips), but it worked beautifully. It was delicious! I think I’ll do another batch for Valentine’s gifts.
That sounds delish
Do you need to keep them in the refrigerator after they have setup? Could you add sliced strawberries in the fudge?
I would worry that the sliced strawberries would make it too wet. I keep mine in the fridge because I prefer a firmer texture.
Its great
THESE WOULD BE GREAT TO MAKE FOR A WEDDING ANYTIME
Do you keep this in the fridge after you let it set, or keep it out at room temp?
I think ill use chocolate melts and peanut butter frosting. yummy !!!!
Oh my! That sounds ah-mazing.
Tried this with the chocolate fudge frosting, and peanut butter chips. Its yummy and fast.
would this work with any flavor frosting just as well?
Yes it should!
Works really well if you add half bag of marshmallows
for the Strawberry fudge ..is it real sweet and rich? i was wondering about the sugar intake?
Susan, it’s frosting and candy — it’s pretty much all sugar. If are avoiding sugar, this isn’t a recipe for you.
Is this made with white chocolate, or the vanilla melting chips that are pictured?
The melting chips you see above.
Candy melts are not actually “white chocolate”, they are candy. You should correct that in your recipe.
Will this work with whipped icing as well?
I haven’t tried it that way, just with the items above.
It won’t set up if you use whipped frosting.
yes you can use canned frosting… i use choc frosting and peanut butter chips to make choc peanut butter fudge
I’ve done this for several years. using frosting and various flavored candy chips. We LOVE IT with peanut butter chips being out favorite!!!
I used strawberry whipped frosting and white chocolate chips. Worked fine!
You are evil… I will be trying this yummy treat =)
Why didn’t I think of this???? Thank you!
You can just about any flavor of frosting you want, doesn’t have to be just strawberry!!
quick and easy
