Can I use dark chocolate instead of white chocolate for this fudge?

Using dark chocolate instead of white chocolate can change the flavor profile of your fudge significantly. Dark chocolate will offer a deeper flavor and richer texture, but it may overshadow the sweetness associated with sugar cookies. If you prefer a sweeter dessert, stick to white chocolate or blend the two for a great balance.

How long does Valentine's Day Sugar Cookie Fudge last?

Properly stored in an airtight container, this fudge can last for about a week in the refrigerator. If well wrapped and kept cool, it maintains its quality and flavor. You might also freeze it if you want to keep it for longer, just ensure to thaw it in the fridge before serving.

Is it necessary to use a double boiler for melting the chocolate?

While using a double boiler is preferred to avoid burning the chocolate, you can also melt it directly in the microwave. If you choose this method, be sure to heat in short intervals and stir frequently to ensure even melting.

What is the best way to cut fudge into even squares?

To cut fudge evenly, it is advisable to use a warm knife. Dip the knife in hot water, dry it off, and then slice through the fudge. This method ensures clean cuts and helps prevent the fudge from sticking to the knife.

Can I add nuts or other mix-ins to this fudge?

Absolutely! Adding chopped nuts, like pecans or walnuts, can enhance the texture and flavor of the fudge. You can also incorporate mini chocolate chips or dried fruit for a delightful twist. Just make sure to adjust the overall quantity of the recipe to accommodate these additions.
