Cinnamon Fudge

Cinnamon Fudge is one of the best flavors for Fudge. This is a delicious, little sweet treat!

I first made this fudge many years ago when I was preparing a lot of my favorite fudge recipes for the holidays. Cinnamon fudge is made with cinnamon baking chips. And cinnamon happens to be a sweet and delicious flavor for fudge!

Where can you buy cinnamon chips?

Well, the grocery stores used to carry them quite often, but now they’re a little tougher to locate. I’ve spotted them at Target or Walmart on occasion (found near the chocolate chips). But mostly I purchase cinnamon chips on Amazon. I keep extras in the freezer until I make my next cinnamon chip recipe.

Ingredients needed:

  • white sugar
  • salted butter
  • evaporated milk
  • cinnamon baking chips
  • marshmallow creme
  • vanilla extract

How to make Cinnamon Fudge:

The full, printable recipe is at the end of this post.

Line a 9×13-inch pan with foil; coat with cooking spray. Alternately, if you want thicker fudge, you can line a 9×9-inch square pan instead.

In a heavy bottom 3-quart sauce pan, combine the sugar, butter and milk. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.

Boil for 5 minutes, stirring all the time- if using a candy thermometer- let it get up to at least 234 degrees. Remove from heat and stir in the cinnamon chips until melted. Add the marshmallow creme and vanilla; beat with a wooden spoon until well blended.

Carefully pour the mixture into the prepared dish.

Let cool to room temperature; gently lift out of the pan and place on a cutting board. 

Cut the fudge into squares. It should turn out creamy and delish. Enjoy!

Troubleshooting fudge-making problems:

  1. If you make a fudge recipe and it turns out to have a grainy texture, the sugars probably crystallized. This is a common mistake when making fudge. If the melting sugar splashes onto the sides of the pan, it turns back into crystals and causes the fudge to seize up. Use a wet pastry brush to wipe down any sugar that sticks to the sides of the pot while cooking.
  2. If your fudge did not set, it probably never got hot enough. This mistake is super easy to avoid if you use a candy thermometer and cook the fudge to the temperature indicated in the recipe.
  3. If your fudge turns out dry and crumbly, it was cooked too long. When you cook it too long, fudge won’t contain enough water, giving it a dry, crumbly texture.
  4. If your fudge turns out hard, you likely over-beat your fudge with the wooden spoon. Pay close attention to the change in appearance and only beat the fudge until it loses its glossy sheen.
