Mint Chocolate Fudge Recipe
What I love the most about this recipe is that it’s super simple to change it out to fit the season. For St. Patrick’s Day we use mint flavoring and green food coloring with these cute Shamrock silicone molds…but we also make this easy chocolate fudge for Valentine’s Day using red food coloring, vanilla flavoring, and heart silicone molds.
For Easter you could use bunny or egg molds and add a touch of lemon flavoring for super simple lemon chocolate fudge. The possibilities are endless!
