Easy Mocha Fudge Recipe - Combine chocolate fudge with instant espresso crystals to create a mocha fudge recipe that is "sinfully delicious".

popular-pin-it-button-50

I love the combination of coffee and chocolate in desserts. There is a depth of flavor when coffee and chocolate are combined that is unmatched when they are served individually! I decided to modify my Easy Fudge Recipe and add Instant Espresso Crystals to create a Mocha Fudge.

My husband described the results as “sinfully delicious”. I am not sure if I will be put on the naughty list or nice list by sharing this Mocha Fudge with friends and neighbors.

My husband is always impressed with my fudge recipes because his mother never made candies. Many people think that it is hard to make fudge, which is why it makes a lovely gift. You get the “wow factor” because people think you have made something very difficult, but it really isn't that hard at all. All you need is a large pot and a Candy Thermometer, which you can pick up  for several dollars.

My Easy Homemade Fudge has a step by step tutorial if you have never made fudge before.

Recipe type: Homemade Candy
Serves: 24
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ⅔ cup evaporated milk
  • 3 cups sugar
  • 2 tablespoons instant espresso crystals
  • 12 ounce bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 jar of marshmallow cream (7 ounce jar)
Directions
  1. In a large pot combine the butter, evaporated milk, instant espresso crystals, and sugar.
  2. Cook over high heat, stirring continuously until the mixture reaches 234 degrees (use a candy thermometer to keep track of the temperature).
  3. Remove from heat.
  4. Stir in chocolate chips until they are completely melted and completely mixed in.
  5. Add vanilla; stir well.
  6. Stir in marshmallow cream until it is completely mixed with the chocolate.
  7. Pour fudge into a greased pan or serving dish.
Notes
I put it in the refrigerator to cool it quickly. It will take approximately 4 -5 hours to cool if you leave it at room temperature (which is way too long for my family to wait). Makes approximately 3 lbs.
