It’s no secret that I love making slow cooker fudge and most weeks I try to think of a new recipe to make. This week I decided to make a Slow Cooker Mars Bar Fudge recipe as Mars bars are one of my favourite indulgent treats and something that are just so easily available too.
When I was brainstorming new slow cooker fudge flavours to try, Colette suggested Amaretto and Cherry as one of her favourite chocolates is the Cherry Deluxe from Hotel Chocolat. With a mix of an Amaretto ganache and cherries it sounded like a winning combination – and one I couldn’t wait to experiment with.
If you ask me what my favourite alcoholic tipple is I would probably say gin. But, if you ask me the same question at Christmas I would say Baileys without hesitation. But, I always make sure I buy enough Baileys at Christmas to last a good chunk of the way through the year! With that …

Over the last year or so we have made so many fudge recipes and I love experimenting with tastes and flavours. One of my favourite types of chocolate is Kinder, with that fantastic mix of white and milk chocolate which I wanted to replicate in a slow cooker fudge.
Ever since I first made a simple slow cooker fudge I haven’t been able to get enough of it. I would make it every week if I could and it’s one of my favourite parts of baking and something we often do on a rainy day.
A while ago I made a super easy two ingredient slow cooker caramel fudge made just with chocolate and Carnation caramel. I also made a delicious slow cooker salted caramel fudge by tweaking the recipe slightly. But, even though those recipes are amazing, they’re not Cadbury Caramel. And sometimes you just need that amazing Cadbury …
Our latest fudge recipe is a moreish chocolate pretzel fudge made in the slow cooker. Using just sweetened condensed milk, chocolate and salted pretzels, it’s a delicious fudge that you won’t be able to put down.
Pistachio is one of my favourite flavours and over the last couple of years I’ve made pistachio fudge and pistachio cherry fudge but the last flavour I really wanted to create is cranberry pistachio fudge – that I’ve now got around to sharing with you all.
If you’re a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup fan then I’m sure you’ll love Reese’s Pieces too. It felt only right that I should add a Reese’s Pieces Fudge to my recipe collection.
