One of my best friends, a world class cook, used to live around the block from my house. She often would call to say she was bringing over dinner, but the best thing she’d bring around was her Christmas chocolate fudge.
That friend moved to Texas shortly before we moved to the beach and the fudge deliveries obviously stopped.
This year, where Christmas is all sorts of weird and different, I was really craving the sweetness of the chocolate fudge so I begged for the recipe and whipped up a batch. Then I pretended that my friend had dropped it off. Just kidding. I haven’t quite come that unhinged yet.
Sweet, melt in your mouth chocolatey decadence.
I'm listing the serving as one sheet pan because it's entirely up to you how big or small you want to make your fudge squares and, honestly, whether you want to share.
