Nutty Candy Bar Fudge

Do you end up with leftover Halloween candy and wonder what to do with it? Or are you just looking to get rid of the temptation in one delicious recipe? If you’ve got leftover Halloween candy, you are going to want to make this super easy nutty candy bar fudge.

There are fancier fudge recipes out there that require a candy thermometer. This is not one such recipe.

To make this nutty candy bar fudge, you need leftover candy bars, salty cashews, chocolate chips, and sweetened condensed milk. So easy. No candy thermometer necessary.

You are going to need about 2 to 2 1/2 cups of chopped candy bars. Save out about 3/4 cup of candy bars and put them in the freezer while you are preparing the rest of the fudge. This will serve as the top layer of fudge and it won’t melt immediately into the warm chocolate if it has been chilled a bit.
