I love dessert recipes with as few ingredients as possible like my 2-Ingredient Banana Donut Holes, 2-Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies, or Healthy Banana Brownies. I love adding a sweet note to our weekly menu, but sometimes, you don’t want to spend hours in the kitchen. This simple recipe is pretty handy for that, or if you are working on Christmas day and you still want to make something yourself in a minute! So let me share with you how you can simply whip a batch of vegan chocolate fudge with two ingredients.
Ingredients and Substitutions
All you need to make a delicious chocolate fudge are 2 ingredients:
Chocolate Chips or dark chocolate – The choice of chocolate matters when it comes to fudge. If you are using poor-quality chocolate chips, don’t expect the fudge to be good. I prefer high-quality dessert chocolate with 70% cocoa. It has a much stronger chocolate flavor than semi-sweet chocolate chips and less sugar, which balances the added sweetness from condensed milk. You can also use white chocolate with this recipe for vegan white chocolate fudge. Condensed Milk – Since we don’t use dairy in our recipes, we use sweetened coconut condensed milk. Is it healthier than classic condensed milk? Not really! It’s actually slightly sweeter than regular condensed milk, with almost 1/3 more sugar per serving, and slightly higher in saturated fat because it’s made of coconut. But fudge is a treat, and if you prefer healthier fudge options, try my Healthy Peanut Butter Fudge or 4-Ingredient Chocolate Fudge instead.

Flavor and Texture Variations
You can make this easy fudge recipe even better by adding some of the below ingredients in the batter. Stir in 1/2 cup of:
Chopped Pecan or Walnuts Zest of Orange Toasted Almonds Vegan Mini Marshmallow Dried Cranberries Vegan White Chocolate Chips
Or sprinkle some holiday decorations on the top, like Christmas sprinkles or a pinch of salt.
Storage Instructions
Fudges don’t need to be refrigerated, and the same goes for this 2-ingredient fudge. It lasts up to 2 weeks in an airtight box in the pantry. But you can, of course, store the fudge in the refrigerator if it’s hot where you live or if you prefer cold fudges. I recommend popping out the fudge from the fridge at least 30 minutes before eating to give the chocolate some time to get back to its softer chewy texture.
