It’s almost Christmas!! I don’t know about you guys but I feel like December is being swallowed up right before my eyes and I’d better get my you-know-what in gear before it’s the 24th and I haven’t done any Christmas shopping or Christmas baking (insert scared face emoji here)! Thankfully, this Easy 3-Ingredient Chocolate Orange Fudge will save the day, at least as far as my Christmas baking is concerned.
When it comes to Christmas, we’re actually pretty chilled out. We’re minimal on the gifts and parties and try to focus on giving more than receiving. But one thing I ALWAYS do is deliver homemade Christmas treats to our friends and neighbours. My favourite Chocolate Caramel Shortbread Bars are always on the list of treats I make, as well as these delectable Whipped Shortbread Cookies. And this year, this Easy 3-Ingredient Chocolate Orange Fudge has made the list!
If I’m honest, it was a no-brainer. I mean, if I can save time on anything without sacrificing flavour or quality I will do it! You won’t even believe how EASY this Easy 3-Ingredient Chocolate Orange Fudge is to make (well, it IS in the name after all). If you have a bowl and a microwave and 3 simple ingredients, you can easily make this recipe!!

And if you’re not a big fan of chocolate and orange, try adding vanilla extract and making a simple plain old chocolate fudge. Or better yet, add a few drops of peppermint extract and you’ve got Peppermint Chocolate Fudge! Trust me, you’re going to LOVE this recipe! It tastes just like the old fashioned fudge we all know and love, but without all the effort!

Easy 3-Ingredient Chocolate Orange Fudge
Recipe: Ingredients
- 500 grams semi-sweet chocolate (approximately 18 ounces)
- 1 small can sweetened condensed milk
- orange extract
- zest of one orange (optional)
- orange slices for decorating (optional)
Recipe: Instructions
- Break chocolate pieces into a large microwaveable bowl and microwave in 30 second increments at 50% power until completely melted and smooth.

- Line an 8-inch x 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper and pour the fudge mixture into the lined pan, smoothing out the top.
- Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for one to 4 hours, or until completely set.
- Slice into small squares, garnish with some additional orange zest or orange slices (I like to dip my orange slices in sugar before garnishing!) and serve.

I love to bake and it’s confusing when I’m baking for a diabetic. Do you have yummy receipts too? Thank you and Merry Christmas.
Hi Cynthia, I’m not sure what you mean, but I don’t really share dessert recipes for diabetics. Feel free to check out any of my healthy recipes that would be great for someone with diabetes! 🙂
How much orange extract ? It doesn’t say. I want a hint of orange flavor so you know it’s there but not to over power the chocolate.
Depending on your preference you can use a few drops or up to 1/2 tsp.

How much orange extract is needed? Can i get a quantity please?
I’d suggest reading the instructions on the bottle of orange extract – some kinds call for only a few drops (because they’re orange essence, kind of like an essential oil), and some are like vanilla extract and you can add about 1/2 teaspoon. If you’re still not sure, taste a drop you’ll know right away how strong it is. It’s always a good idea to add a little, taste, and then add more if needed. Hope that helps!
If you’ve made this how much orange extract did you use????????
Add it to tour taste! Use a few drops, try it and decide if you want more or not. Happy baking! ☺️
