As any regular reader will know, we love making new fudge recipes and when I saw Choc Nibbles in the shop I thought they’d be a great basis for a lovely, new fudge creation.
What are Choc Nibbles?
Choc Nibbles are the Nibbliest Nobbliest chocolate treats around. The classic Choc Nibbles are the perfect blend of chocolate, caramel and biscuit, making them the ultimate indulgence – and great for adding to a whole array of recipes in the kitchen like our Choc Nibbles rocky road and Choc Nibbles cookies.
Choc Nibbles come in a vast range of flavours and we just used classic Choc Nibbles for this recipe but you can use any flavour you like.
This recipe couldn’t be easier to make. Using just three ingredients, milk chocolate bars or chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk and Choc Nibbles chocolate treats. It takes just 40 minutes to make and then as little as four hours to set in the fridge afterwards.
Can you make this fudge in the microwave?
Many people make fudge in the microwave but I much prefer the control I have when I make it in the crock pot or slow cooker. If you don’t have a slow cooker, make it in the microwave by putting the ingredients in a microwave safe bowl and heating on short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between. Then follow the instructions as per the recipe below.
Can you make slow cooker fudge with evaporated milk?
Our slow cooker fudge works because condensed milk has a really high sugar content, needed to create that beautifully rich fudge. Evaporated milk isn’t the same, doesn’t have that sugar content and isn’t thick enough to help the fudge thicken and set. You can’t use evaporated milk in these recipes – so get some condensed milk instead.
Do you cook slow cooker fudge high or low temperature?
We always cook fudge on a high slow cooker temperature setting and it takes around 40 minutes in total. You could make it on the low setting but it would take longer and would still need to be stirred regularly. You may as well keep the slow cooker on high and be done in under an hour!
When cooking, is the slow cooker fudge lid on or off?
When making slow cooker fudge, you need to remove the slow cooker lid otherwise excess moisture would be retained in the slow cooker pot and the fudge wouldn’t thicken as it needs to.
How long does slow cooker fudge keep for?
This slow cooker fudge keeps well in the fridge, in an airtight container for a couple of weeks. The flavour matures over the first couple of days of it being in the fridge so you get the full flavour after it’s been in the fridge for a few days.

What equipment do you need to make slow cooker fudge?
Slow cooker fudge doesn’t need anything special to make it, and you probably already have everything you need at home, but this is the equipment we use:
- A slow cooker
- A wooden spoon
- A spatula
- A square baking tin
- Baking paper sheets
- Food scales
- Good quality knives to cut the fudge into pieces
- Airtight containers for storage
- Food gift bags to package it up and give the fudge as gifts
Once you’ve got everything you need to make the fudge you can just keep making it again and again – in so many different flavours too!
