Apple Pie Fudge

4.60 from 5 votes

This rich fudge tastes exactly like apple pie had a bit of sweet frosting drizzled over the top. The spiced flavor is perfectly satisfying.

Line an 8 or 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
Place the chocolate chips, with the spice, in a large bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute, stopping every 30 seconds to stir. The chocolate should be creamy with no lumps. If there are lumps, continue microwaving in 15-second intervals.
Remove the lid and foil from the frosting and microwave the container on high for 45 seconds without stopping.
Pour the warmed frosting into the bowl with the melted chocolate and stir thoroughly until combined.
Pour the chocolate and frosting mixture into the pan and spread evenly.
Crush the pieces of pie up and drop them in large chunks over the top of the fudge, lightly pressing down on them, so they sink into the fudge.
If desired, drop teaspoons of the apple pie filling over the top, but do not press it into the fudge.
Place in the fridge for about 2 hours or until solid.
Slice into 1-inch squares and enjoy!

Do not by any means mix the apple pie or pie filling into the fudge directly. If you do, it will make the fudge too wet, and it won’t set properly. If you have trouble with it setting up, skip the pie filling drops on the top.
The filling isn’t needed but adds extra flavor if desired. The fudge tastes amazing and isn’t lacking in flavor without it.
The chocolate will try and dry on you as you add the frosting. Just stir rigorously, and it will mix in with the frosting well. I use a rubber spatula for this step as it works the best.
Cream cheese or vanilla frosting can be used in place of the white frosting if need be.
