Rolo Fudge checks all the boxes for creamy, chocolatey, caramely, and delicious. The combination of unbelievably rich chocolate and gooey caramel creates a fudge that is utterly addictive and takes decadence to the next level. If you know someone who loves Rolos, this no-bake recipe is the easiest fudge recipe you could ever make.
The combination of chocolate and caramel is irresistible! Rolo Brownies and Rolo Cheesecake are two more recipes with this scrumptious candy ingredient.
Rolo Fudge Ingredients
You will need:
- 4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk (Do NOT substitute evaporated milk)
- 5 tablespoons heavy cream
- 4½ cups unwrapped and halved Rolos, divided into 2½ cups and 2 cups
PRO TIP: You can chill the whole Rolos in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before you slice them in half. Also, keep the sliced Rolos in the refrigerator before adding them to the fudge. This will help ensure the caramel does not ooze out prematurely before slicing the fudge.
Substitutions and Additions
CHOCOLATE CHIPS: This simple recipe would be just as rich and yummy with any kind of chocolate chip. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, or what about an entirely new twist with white chocolate chips?
How to Make Rolo Fudge
STEP ONE: Line a 9×9-inch baking dish with aluminum foil. Spray with nonstick cooking spray and set it aside.
STEP TWO: Add the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and heavy cream to a 2 to 3-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the chips are melted and smooth.
STEP THREE: Spread ½ of the chocolate mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
STEP FOUR: Evenly layer 2½ cups of the halved Rolos on top of the chocolate layer.
STEP FIVE: Spread the remaining chocolate mixture over the Rolo layer.
PRO TIP: You can score a grid pattern on top of the fudge before refrigerating to help cut clean slices.
STEP SIX: Finally, top the chocolate layer with the remaining 2 cups of halved Rolos. Allow the fudge to rest for 30 minutes before tightly covering it with plastic wrap and chilling in the refrigerator for 30 minutes before slicing and serving.
PRO TIP: To help slice the Rolo chocolate fudge, run a large sharp knife under hot water. Be sure to dry the knife before cutting.
