Description

This No Bake Nutella Fudge is a quick and easy sweet treat combining the rich hazelnut spread Nutella with butter, confectioners sugar, and your choice of nuts. Perfectly smooth, creamy, and customizable with walnuts, pecans, or roasted hazelnuts, this fudge requires no baking and is ready to enjoy after just a few hours chilling in the refrigerator.

Ingredients

Fudge Base

  • 1 cup Nutella spread
  • 2 sticks unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • 3-4 cups confectioners sugar (sifted)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Add-ins and Toppings

  • sprinkles
  • 1 cup walnuts (chopped) or 1 cup pecans (chopped) or 1 cup hazelnuts (roasted and chopped)

Instructions

  1. Line bakeware: Line two regular muffin tins with paper cups or line a rectangular or square pan with aluminum foil, leaving extra foil over the sides for easy removal.
  2. Melt ingredients: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine Nutella and butter. Microwave and stir every 40-60 seconds until completely melted and smooth.
  3. Mix flavorings: Remove from microwave and stir in vanilla extract (if using) and salt thoroughly using a rubber spatula.
  4. Add sugar and nuts: Add 3 cups sifted confectioners sugar and mix thoroughly. If mixture is still too wet, gradually add remaining sugar. Fold in chopped nuts of your choice and stir well.
  5. Press and decorate: Press the fudge mixture firmly into prepared pan or muffin cups, smoothing the top with a spatula. Immediately sprinkle the top with sprinkles as the surface may appear oily.
  6. Chill to set: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the fudge is firm to the touch.
  7. Store properly: Keep fudge stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week for best freshness and texture.

Notes

  • Ensure the confectioners sugar is sifted to avoid lumps in the fudge.
  • You can choose any one type of nut or a combination depending on preference.
  • Pressing the fudge firmly into the mold helps achieve a smooth, even texture.
  • Refrigeration time is crucial for the fudge to fully firm up before serving.
  • Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent drying out.
