3-Minute Fudge!
(adapted from about.com)
Ingredients:
1 ¾ c. powdered sugar, sifted
¼ c. cocoa, sifted
2 T. nondairy milk
¼ c. margarine or coconut oil
2 t. vanilla extract
¼ c. chopped nuts, optional
Directions:
In a glass bowl, combine the sugar and cocoa. Stir in milk and margarine (it will be lumpy). Cook in microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir until smooth. Add in vanilla and nuts, if using. Spread into small loaf pan. Let cool, then cut into squares.
This was really good! It’s very creamy, although not perfectly smooth. And it was pretty sweet. I think next time I’ll use peanut butter instead of coconut oil and it will be just right. I cooled mine in the fridge a few minutes. It’s not as pretty when you do that, but hey, if you make 3-minute fudge, you need chocolate NOW!

ReplyDeleteMy answer: not much! I was actually planning on making a no-bake chocolate tart this weekend, so we must be on the same wavelength :) Considering my budget, I might have to skimp a little on the ingredients, though. Thanks for this!
ReplyDeleteI can't even read the ingredients in this recipe. Why? Because then I know I'd just go make it, and eat it. Fudge in 3 minutes??? Somebody, stop me. . . .
ReplyDeleteOh my! If you keep posting these recipes I'm going to have to buy an entire new wardrobe of clothes!

ReplyDeleteMy first answer was going to be: "Nothing is better!"
ReplyDeleteBut you proved me wrong!
great idea! Dangerous, but great.
ReplyDeleteI don't have a microwave so I can't have this kind of fun. Unless, of course, I take the ingredients to work and make it there! Thinkin' about it...
ReplyDeleteOh boy! I don't have a microwave FORTUNATELY! lol.. but I like the peanut butter idea.. hmmm.. I'll bet I could figure out something with peanut butter and chocolate too..
ReplyDelete3-minute fudge is going to be so perfect when we hit the road! Sometimes all we have is a microwave! I bet it's awesome with peanut butter too!

ReplyDeleteThat looks wonderful! I'm assuming the measurement for the margarine is 1/4 cup?
ReplyDeleteYes, Susan G, and thank you - how embarrassing. I've fixed the post to read 1/4 c margarine.

ReplyDeleteI'm drooling! :P (This is SO a recipe for my lacto-ovo fudge loving friend, but she doesn't have a strong enough taste for chocolate! :0)
