The mention of fudge is usually a sign of good things to come. It means fudge-y brownies, chocolate fudge cake and fudgesicles. Then there's fudge, the chocolate confection itself. And that fudge is great around the holidays. It's easy to whip up a batch and it makes great gifts -- which is why this time of year we all need a ton of super simple fudge recipes which we have for you right here.
While chocolate fudge is a classic, don't limit yourself this year because there are so many great fudge flavors to try. We put together 30 of our favorites, which range from s'mores fudge to Oreo fudge to peppermint fudge -- all of them worth the effort.
