🧁 Tips for the Best No-Bake Fudge Texture

No-bake fudge can be finicky if not handled properly, but these quick tips ensure your cookie dough fudge comes out smooth and sliceable every time:

• Use room temperature butter and cream it well: This prevents lumps and ensures even mixing with sugar and flour.

• Chill thoroughly before slicing: The fudge needs to set completely to hold its shape. For clean cuts, run a sharp knife under hot water and wipe it dry between slices.

• Avoid overmixing the chocolate chips: Stir them in gently after combining the dough with the fudge base. Overmixing can melt the chips and make them blend into the fudge rather than stand out in each bite.

These small details make a big difference when creating a professional-looking (and tasting!) fudge tray.
