Chocolate Orange Fudge

December 5, 2019 By Amy Leave a Comment

Chocolate Orange Fudge recipe for the slow cooker

When it comes to festive flavours, there’s a few that will always be iconic in my books. Gingerbread, peppermint and mixed spice to name a few; any recipe involving them and I need a Michael Buble playlist to accompany it. Along with those is of course chocolate orange and this Chocolate Orange Fudge is the perfect sweet Christmas treat!

Although when I say it is a Christmas treat, don’t be mistaken, you can easily whip up a batch of Chocolate Orange Fudge anytime of year to enjoy. It’s super simple and super scrumptious, so why only keep it for December?

And when I say it’s simple, I’m not in any way exaggerating. Like our White Chocolate & Cranberry Fudge, these little bites of heaven are made with just a handful of ingredients in your slow cooker. Simply pop it all in, stir it at regular intervals, transfer to the fridge and boom, you have a wonderfully indulgent homemade gift, that will impress even the hardest to buy for.
