- Prepare Your Pan - Line your 9-inch square pan with aluminum foil, allowing the foil to extend over the edge. Grease the lined pan with cooking spray.

Cook the mixture on medium heat for 8-12 minutes, or until the mixture reaches a boil. Continue cooking for another 6-8 minutes or until the candy thermometer reaches 240 degrees Fahrenheit, stirring constantly.

Notes
Fudge should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 weeks. Layer the fudge with wax paper before placing it in an airtight container. Be sure to store it somewhere cool and dry to avoid it from melting.
You may also store your fudge in the fridge for 2-3 weeks. It should also be stored in an airtight container between layers of wax paper. For best results, let it reach room temperature before eating.
You may also freeze your fudge as well. Fudge can be frozen for anywhere from 2-3 months to even up to a year. It all depends on the type of fudge and how you store it.
To freeze fudge, wrap it in wax paper and then wrap it in aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Place the wrapped fudge in an airtight container or Ziploc bag. When you are ready to eat your fudge, allow it to sit at room temperature for 2-3 hours to thaw before serving.
For best results, always cut your fudge before storing it. This will make it much easier to work with and store. Using wax paper when storing will prevent the pieces from sticking together.
