Step 2

You can use your microwave and heat it up in short bursts, mixing after each time.You can use a waterbath by bring a pot of water to boil and placing the bowl with the ingredients on top of it without touching the water and mixing until everything is melted.INSTANT POT HACK: add 2 cups of water to your Instant Pot (you can use either metal or ceramic liner), press sauté button, cover with a lid (not the pressure cooker lid but any other lid that fits on top). Wait until the water comes to boil. Remove the lid and place a bowl with the fudge ingredients on top of your Instant Pot. Melt everything together.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to a piece of wac paper. You can use parchment paper, foil, or even plastic wrap. Feel free to divide the mixture into two or more pieces if desired.

Step 6

Shape the mixture into a log. IMPORTANT: make sure that none of the wrapping is stuck inside the fudge.
