    And sometimes you just need a bit of a jolt of that very thing.

    FABULOUS Sugar Free Fudge

     
    This recipe for fudge is made without adding any sugar.
    However, this fudge tastes like lush chocolate goodness!
     

    Did you try my Sugar Free Keto White Chocolate Fudge recipe?

    That fudge recipe is for a keto low carbohydrate and sugar free white fudge.
    Both this chocolate fudge and that white fudge would go nicely together if you are looking for some tasty sugar free treats to serve together!
     

    To make this recipe you will need sugar free chocolate chips. You can find a variety of sugar free and keto chocolate chips here.

    People sometimes as what exactly is fudge.

    I get that is is easy to think of fudge as a kind of chocolate.
    In a way it is because chocolate is added to a fudge recipe such as this one.

    However, there is a difference between fudge and chocolate.

    As mentioned, chocolate can be both an ingredient and something that results from ingredients.
    On the other hand, fudge has other ingredients besides chocolate added to it which result in something more rich and lush. Also, fudge can be made without adding chocolate to it.
     

    So what is the secret to good fudge?

    First, let me say that 'good fudge' may be in the eyes of the beholder.
    This has a lot to do with the ingredients added and personal preferences.

    As far as a well made fudge goes, there are a couple of factors that can make it a good fudge.

    The fudge should have good taste to it thanks to the mix of the flavors added.
    Also, the fudge should be structurally well made so that when you bite into it, it is pleasurable to the palate.

    Here are some tips for making fudge.

    This recipe calls for evaporated milk.
    Keto low carbohydrate followers can use heavy cream instead.

    Here are some more helpful tips for you.

    1. This recipe can be made in a microwave or on a stove. If you are making this recipe on a stove, I suggest that you use the double boiler method.
    2. The fudge should be made in a square baking dish. Line the baking dish with foil(well greased) that overhangs the sides of the baking dish to make it easy to lift the fudge out to cut into pieces.
    3. Adding chopped nuts to your fudge can make the fudge even better. You can also sprinkle sugar free sprinkles on top to make your fudge even more pretty.

     

     

    How to store homemade fudge.

    I like to keep my fudge wrapped in an airtight container.
    If properly stored, fudge can keep for a couple of weeks refrigerated and even longer frozen.

    About this recipe for sugar free chocolate fudge.

    This is a simple recipe for making fudge that has no added sugar in it.
    Also, this recipe is based upon a basic fudge that does have sugar added to it.

     

    To make this fudge you will need sugar free chocolate chips.
    You can make this recipe more interesting by using two different kinds of chocolate chips.
    For example, you can add both sugar free milk chocolate chips and sugar free dark chocolate chips to your fudge.
    Chopped nuts are optional as well.

    Ingredients needed to make fabulous fudge with no added sugar.

    • Sugar Free Chocolate Chips- 3 cups. Feel free to use dark or milk chocolate chips or even a combination. Keto low carb folks should look for a keto low carb chocolate chip product.
    • Evaporated Milk- 12 ounces. Keto low carb people can try using heavy cream.
    • Sugar Alternative- equivalent to 1 tablespoon of sugar. I use a granular sugar alternative that measures 1:1 with sugar and that can be baked with for best results.
    • Butter- ยผ cup melted. That is a half of a stick.
    • Vanilla Extract- 1 teaspoon. Feel free to sub in another extract as desired (like peppermint extract for example).
    • Optional- chopped nuts or sugar free sprinkles .

    How to make Fabulous Sugar Free Fudge

     

    • Line a square baking dish with foil that overhangs the sides of the baking dish. Then grease the foil.
    • In a large microwave safe bowl, melt the chocolate with the evaporated milk until creamy, stopping to stir every thirty seconds. Then stir in in the sugar alternative, butter and vanilla. Heat this for another 30 seconds (I place a paper towel over it to prevent a possible mess).
    • Pour the melted and blended ingredients into your prepared baking dish. Then refrigerate until set.
    • To cut the fudge into squares, simply lift it out of the baking dish using the overlapping foil.
    • Make this on the stove using a double boiler method or on low heat stirring continuously.

    Here is the original recipe.

    The original recipe for FABULOUS Sugar Free Fudge

    Ingredients- Sugar Free Chocolate Chips- 3- cups, Evaporated Milk- ยฝ cup., Sugar alternative- equivalent to 1 cup of sugar, Butter- ยฝ cup and Vanilla Extract- 1 teaspoon.

    How to make FABULOUS Sugar Free Fudge

    Prepare a square glass baking dish with aluminum foil which also overlaps the sides of the dish. Grease or spray this lined baking dish to prevent sticking as well. You can set this aside. Place the chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and cook for 30 seconds on medium. Covering the bowl loosely with a microwave safe paper towel can help prevent a possible mess (at least in my kitchen). Stir in the evaporated milks and then the sugar alternative, butter and vanilla. Cook for another 30 seconds and stir again. Continue this process until everything has melted and blended together- about 4- 4 ยฝ minutes total.

    Obviously, this will be hot thus,ย  please take precautions. Remove the bowl from the microwave and pour the fudge into the prepped baking dish. Allow to cool at room temperature. Then refrigerate your fudge until you are ready to cut it into squares.

      BTW the cornstarch has so much sugar as a carb that it doesn't matter if you don`t put real sugar.Basicly everything has sugar( turn around the milk to see how much sugar does it have for 100ml). In the brown flour you have less sugars than the white, but the cornstarch is a sugar-killer! Make the difference between low-carb and sugar free.

        Hi- While High-Fructose corn syrup would have sugar in it, basic corn starch does not. That is why it is important to read the labels. However, there are alternatives to corn starch such as arrowroot, potato starch, or tapioca. Whether or not the alternatives will work in this recipe, I cannot say because I have not tried them. thanks!

        do you have to add the chocolate chips or are they optional? Asking because my local superstore does not carry sugar-free chocolate chips

      • SFD

        October 9, 2017 at 12:14 pm

        Hi. You can find sugar free chocolate chips on Amazon. I have trouble finding them where I live as well.
        Thanks!

        I buy sugar free chocolate chips @ walmart. They carry the regular size bags (no large bags) it's okay because I make this for my husband (pre-diabetic). Likes the fudge as it's his one option for chocolate that he loves.

      • SFD

        October 20, 2017 at 9:39 am

        Hi. Yes- not all stores carry the chocolate chips. They can be hard to find locally in some places- such as where I live. I am so glad to hear that the fudge is a hit! ๐Ÿ™‚

      Eek! Even though this is sugar free the Splenda is just as bad (or worse) than sugar. It doesn't have the calories but it does make your blood sugar spike. I would try this with Stevia

      • SFD

        October 9, 2017 at 12:12 pm

        Hi.
        I have found that there are varying opinions on which sugar alternative to use in a recipe. As a result, I have started to list "sugar alternative" rather than a specific alternative whenever I can. I personally try them all to see what works best for me and my recipe. Stevia is a popular choice it seems. Thanks!!

      November 7, 2017 at 2:31 pm

      I don't use starches at all... I wonder if there's a way to do this without? Have you tried it before you hit on the final recipe? Also I'd probably use coconut milk or cream, because I am super low carb, but if I can find a way not to use the starch, Ima try it.

      • SFD

        November 7, 2017 at 3:01 pm

        Hi. I have seen fudge recipes that use use coconut oil in them. I have not tried this however, most coconut oil is carb free. Also, I would eat it in moderation. Thanks!

    9. Katherine H Richardson

      November 12, 2017 at 1:50 pm

      When you say Splenda in this recipe, are you using Powder Splenda or Baking Blend Splenda?

      • SFD

        November 13, 2017 at 7:58 am

        It's the granular form. Thanks!

      I have not use any added sugar for over a year but I hope I was tired when I read use the same amount of substitute that one uses as called for in sugar...notta Use less than right? I mean 1 Cup of regular sugar is ยฝ cup of splenda. And I use both Splenda for baking and stevia. And most definitely use Coconut milk for the milk such as in pumpkin pie...Ummmmmmmmmm so delicious.

      • SFD

        December 4, 2017 at 8:46 am

        Hi. Not all sugar substitutes are the same. And since not everyone reading my recipes can agree on the substitute of choice for a recipe, I like to suggest that folks make their own choices. You really need to read the package on the substitute to get an idea of how much of that equivalent is equal to an amount of sugar.Some substitutes, such as Splenda granular, will usually be 1:1 sugar amounts in a recipe. However, not everyone is a fan. Thanks!
