I’m taking five minutes to get this Weekend Cooking blog post up about Rachael Ray’s recipe Five-Minute Fudge Wreath recipe. It’s in her cookbook, My Year of Meals; and the recipe is also online:
www.rachaelrayshow.com/recipe/16933_5_Minute_Fudge_Wreath
I made this recipe for our January Cookbook Club meeting to see if it could be added to the holiday treats list next year.
Although I am a fudge snob and didn’t think it counted as “real” fudge (because no soft ball stage, no candy thermometer, needed to set in fridge, etc.), the FIve-Minute Fudge Wreath was a big hit at Cookbook Club.
The recipe called for optional decorations with red and green candied cherries, which I couldn’t find in my last-minute dash to the supermarket, so I decorated my wreath with the leftover walnut halves and butterscotch chips.
I would definitely make this again, and think it would be perfect for a dessert buffet or holiday potluck offering.
Happy Weekend Cooking!

I watched the video and that sure looks foolproof. I like the idea of the wreath and the decorations for Christmas.
Oh my gosh that looks rich. A morsel would fill you up…..
No question, when it comes to fudge, sweetened condensed milk is a miracle ingredient!

I can’t eat chocolate but if I could I would definitely make this!
A five-minute chocolate treat definitely sounds worth trying!
Fun idea, looks festive and sinfully delicious for the holidays. 🙂
I’m not a big fan of fudge, but this would be a great contribution to our annual holiday potluck! Thanks!
Forgot to mention that the five minutes seems to refer only to the actual cooking time! haha
I would try it for sure, sounds delicious, as well as a lovely presentation for a party.
That’s so pretty and I love fudge, anything chocolate.
Hey, I see you are reading Faithful Place, do you like it? I love Tana French.
Yes, but especially the audiobooks! Need to hear the Irish accents for the Dublin Murder Squad books!
