Note

For best results, do not overheat the chocolate in the microwave, as it can seize or become grainy. Stir thoroughly between intervals.

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw at room temperature before serving.

Feel free to substitute walnuts with pecans, almonds, or omit nuts entirely for a nut-free version.

If you prefer a smoother texture, you can use a food processor to chop the nuts finely before mixing.
