One of my fondest memories when I was growing up, was being in the kitchen with my mom talking and laughing while she made her no-bake cookies or her chocolate peanut butter fudge. There is just something about creamy and delicious fudge that can instantly put you in a better mood.

And, it’s even better during the holidays because there are so many mouthwatering holiday-inspired fudge recipes that you can make to give as gifts or enjoy with friends and family.

Plus, besides being so delicious, homemade fudge is incredibly easy to make and usually only takes a few ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry.  It can even be made in the microwave making it the perfect no-bake holiday dessert.

Which is why I’ve decided to gather up some of the best fudge recipes to make this holiday season. You will find everything from eggnog fudge to peppermint and of course decadent chocolate fudge as well as rocky road, pumpkin spice, and my favorite, chocolate peanut butter.
