There is nothing I look forward to more than the holiday season! It’s truly the most magical time of year: decorations, spending time with the kids and making treat after treat after treat! My favorite thing to make and share with friends and family during this special season is fudge. It’s so easy to make and I haven’t met a person yet who doesn’t love fudge.
Today I’m sharing this amazing Triple Chocolate Turtle Fudge recipe – so decadent, so rich, so wonderfully scrumptious, you’re going to want to share it with everyone you know.
One of the things I love about this fudge recipe is that it’s a cooked fudge but does not require a candy thermometer. It’s impossible to mess up and tastes like the fudge you buy in candy stores. Maybe better.
It starts with Challenge Butter. Made with 100% real cream, it’s my butter of choice. Sugar, evaporated milk, and three different types of chocolate: semi-sweet chocolate, bittersweet chocolate, and milk chocolate (in the form of Hershey’s chocolate bars). Did your mouth just start watering? I know mine did! It’s super fast and every time I make it I get requests for the recipe.
There’s a lot to love about this fudge but that ooey, gooey caramel layer is my favorite. The picture above shows the fudge at room temperature. If you chill the fudge, the caramel will be completely set up, which can be a good thing for cutting into pieces.
The three different types of chocolate make this fudge seriously impossible to resist.
I do hope you give this fudge a try! Happy holidays!

Triple Chocolate Turtle Fudge
Ingredients
- ⅔ cup Challenge Unsalted Butter
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup evaporated milk
- 1 cup bittersweet chocolate chips 60% cacao

Instructions
- Spray a 9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Line with parchment paper and set aside.

- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
- Once at a full boil, continue boiling for 5 minutes, stirring continuously and scraping down sides of pan.
- Remove from heat and stir in chocolate. (I use a whisk to get out all the lumps.)

- Pour half of the fudge into the prepared baking dish.
- Spoon the caramel over the top, carefully spreading.
- Spoon the remaining half of the fudge on top of the caramel and smooth out the top with an offset spatula.

Marie says
I was wondering what I did wrong. My fudge did not come out creamy, and there is a liquid/oily layer settling on top 🙁
Deborah Fisher says
My sister and I both made this recipe. Both batches came out hard and dry. When adding the chocolate, it was too difficult to even stir. What a waste of money!
Rebekah says
Mine was horrible too! Chalky and not creamy at all! Gross and wasted!

Oh man, I LOVE those square, wrapped caramels you get at the store. I could eat a whole bag. I could probably eat all this fudge by myself, too. You’ve got all the good stuff in there 🙂
