12 oz melted semisweet chocolate chips
8 oz. softened cream cheese
1 lb powdered sugar
1 t vanilla or other flavoring

Mix all ingredients except sugar until thoroughly combined. Then slowly mix in sugar. Spread into LIGHTLY buttered (or nonstick sprayed) dish and refrigerate at least four hours. Cut into squares and serve.

What you are making is actually "refrigerator fudge". It is not true fudge, but a fudge-like candy that must be kept cold to stay firm. Try Alton Brown's fudge recipe (go to the food network website to search for it).

Fudge(This is the one I use all the time, if you want peanut butter fudge use peanut butter chips instead of chocolate)

3 cups sugar
3/4 cup margarine
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 12-oz. (340 g) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 7-oz. (198 g) jar Kraft Marshmallow creme
1 cup chopped nuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


Combine sugar, margarine and milk in heavy 2-1/2 quart saucepan; bring to full rolling bail, stirring constantly. Continue boiling 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring. Remove from heat, stir in chocolate till melted. Add marshmallow creme, nuts & vanilla beat till blended. Pour into greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Let cool and cut into 1-inch squares.

Makes 3 pounds.

Note:I use a candy thermoter and cook it to softball stage between 230-240
