This cherry fudge recipe starts with the most important ingredient – chocolate-covered cherries! You’ll also need dark chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, butter, sugar, marshmallow cream, and vanilla extract in this chocolate cherry fudge recipe. So instead of eating it all myself, I’m giving away the leftovers to my kids’ teachers. It was the perfect balance.įudge is oh-so-good, and I want to stay on Santa’s nice list this year. I was going to go completely dark chocolate for this fudge, but to balance out the amaretto I went semi-sweet with just a dash of dark. So after having that thought, fudge came to mind. If you are in need of some Halloween sweet treats visit the Imperial Sugar Halloween page for some cute ideas.I always wanted a bit more chocolate to balance out the cherry and amaretto filling. They sent me a ton of sugar to bake with for the holidays so be on the lookout for a lot more sweet treats. Just make sure to dry them off well before adding them to the fudge mix.Ī big thanks to Imperial Sugar for the support with this post. Also, rinsing the cherries helps to get rid of the juice they were in which might keep the fudge from setting up properly. The Cherry Chocolate Fudge does need to be kept refrigerated because of the cherries. You know, except for the fact that it’s fudge and not cake. Finding lots of bits of cherries in there along with the rich chocolate gives it a sort of black forest cake feel. So I thought this Cherry Chocolate Fudge would be something he might enjoy. It’s hard work for this chocolate loving girl to come up with desserts that don’t include chocolate.īut, if he likes Black Forest Cake maybe I got lucky. Seriously, after 10 years of marriage I feel like he still surprises me. Which is why I’m always creating non-chocolate treats like the Apple Berry Pie and Vanilla Pudding Pie and during the holidays the Gingersnap and Eggnog Ice Cream Sandwiches. In watching The Great British Bake Off my husband mentioned how much he likes Black Forest Cake which floored me since I’ve always thought he disliked chocolate. And I’m grateful for Imperial Sugar for allowing me to continue on with our family tradition of creating sweet treats together for every occasion. I love the sweet memories I get to make with my kiddos when they join me in the kitchen. Because the initial step of making fudge includes stirring boiling sugar I wouldn’t let little ones help with that step but the mixing step is just the kind of job for them. My kiddos love when I make things to bring to their events and they really do love helping out in the kitchen. Since it is so simple to make it’s perfect to include in cookie trays during Christmas, Halloween parties, or to bring to school bake sales, which is what I made this fudge for. Fudge is so rich that it only takes a little bit to satisfy my sweet tooth so I don’t feel so bad sneaking a little bit here and there.
