Chocolate Orange Fudge image

This is so easy and yet it is probably the best fudge I've ever had. I usually omit the pecans. My niece used this recipe, substituting 3-4 drops peppermint extract for the orange zest, and earned a blue ribbon at the county fair. Even my 12-16 year old 4H girls had no problems making it. Note: make sure you use fresh orange zest. Dried will make the fudge bitter. Also make sure you don't get any of the bitter white part of the rind when you are zesting your orange.

This fudge was a complete disaster! It turned out grainy and hard. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This fudge was a disappointment. It was too crumbly and didn't have much flavor.

This fudge was a little too soft for my taste. I think I'll try cooking it for a little longer next time.

This fudge is good, but it's not as creamy as I would like. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.

This fudge is a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of orange, but I really enjoyed this fudge. The chocolate flavor is really rich and the orange is just a hint.

I've made this fudge several times now and it always turns out perfect. It's so creamy and smooth, and the chocolate-orange flavor is divine.
