I don't care if you're allergic to milk products or have a vendetta towards a cow, you have tried Fudge and you liked it. If you don't like Fudge, that's cool, no judgement here. None the less, you're here reading this. Fudge is awesome year round. It can be used a thousand and one different ways. This post is mostly about a few different ways you can use it. I don't give a shit if it's the NEW YEAR / NEW YOU right now. We all know that's Tom Foolery when it comes to dessert. I had some left over fudge laying around after some of my holiday baking, so I got creative with it.
But you're ''not creative" you say....POPPYCOCK! Everyone is, and hopefully these will spark you to do your own twists.
FIRST of all, here is what I had in my kitchen to work with:
*Strawberries
*Whipped Cream
*Cookies
*Ice Cream
*Chocolate Chips
*Bananas
*Peanut Butter
and
*FUDGE
Let's begin with what I call THE INSIDE OUT CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY
It's EASY!!!!
Take a knife ( BE CAREFUL ) and hollow out the middle of the strawberry. That part is worthless anyways. Take your fudge and fill it up! I added whipped cream and put a chocolate chip on there for good measure.
NEXT an all time classic: ICE CREAM SANDIE
This is just self explanatory. I took the chocolate chip cookies I had left over from the previous post and placed the ice cream ( cookies n' cream ) and fudge in between them. It does make a mess from the very first bite, but who gives a shit.
We are savages and when it's something as good as this, you can by pass the fact that you look like a wolf going hammer time on it's prey. If you got it, add some cinnamon to it for good measure.
If you want to make a twist on the old after school favorite of Peanut Butter and Bananas, ADD FUDGE. Chop up the bananas as if you're throwing them in one of those protein shakes you make after you "work out". We all know you make them because it helps you feel better about yourself...Or you're actually doing it for your heath. That's good too.
Once the bananas are chopped up, place your favorite PB on them. It doesn't matter how much you choose to put. I enjoy chunky PB. WHY?! Because the creamy kind has that weird texture. That's just me though.
NEXT, I poured the fudge on them. POUR as much as you want.
THEN, put them on a tray and place them in the freezer.
OR
Place them on a tray BEFORE you pour the fudge on them. THEN place them in the freezer
Why the freezer?! because it helps them become ONE and not be a pain in the ass to eat. You can eat them right away, I don't care how you do it.
If you do put them in the freezer, keep them in there for an hour or so. Once you pull them out, THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID! let them sit for just a minute and then just go to town on those little bastards. They are addicting. Great drunk snack as well. With the banana being apart of this whole thing, you can kid yourself that this is actually a healthy alternative to most drunk snacks.
There you have it, THREE different ways to use that fudge that is just sitting in your fridge leftover from that one time you wanted to make an ice cream sundae. MAKE GOOD USE of it before it becomes one of those ingredients that you use ONCE and it becomes apart of that trash you toss.
I would love to hear and see other ideas you come up with as well! Now Go and GET YOUR SWEET TOOTH ON!
