FAQ – 3‑Minute Chocolate Coffee Fudge

Can I make this without coffee?

Yes — just skip the coffee. It becomes classic chocolate fudge.

Can I use cocoa powder instead of chocolate chips?

Not for this recipe. Chocolate chips give structure and firmness.

Can I use milk chocolate?

Yes, but the fudge will be softer. Dark or semi‑sweet works best.

Can I make this dairy‑free?

Use dairy‑free chocolate chips + coconut condensed milk.

Why is my fudge too soft?

It needs more chilling time or a higher chocolate‑to‑milk ratio.

Why is my fudge grainy?

It overheated. Microwave in short intervals and stir often.
