Love Mars Bars? This Mars Bar Fudge recipe could not be easier to make and best of all, you need just THREE ingredients and you will NOT need a sugar thermometer! This easy Chocolate Fudge recipe is packed with flavour and makes the perfect sweet treat or dessert for your next special occasion. Both regular and Thermomix instructions are also included.
The problem with not being able to resist a bargain when you see it, is that you inevitably end up with things you a. forget about b. you don’t need or c. you end up with waaay too many. When I did a recent stocktake of the pantry I was a little shocked to discover a total of 14 Mars Bars hidden in various places so I knew I needed to turn them into something before the urge to start eating them began. I decided to adapt my easy Chocolate Malteser Fudge recipe and turn it into three ingredient Mars Bar Fudge.
Why you will love this recipe:
- It’s no bake!
- You don’t need a sugar thermometer
- You can make this fudge up to one week in advance
- It’s an easy dessert

Judith Clark
Can I do this in my slow cooker as this is how I make my fudge all the time. it look’s so delicious & yummy off to my local IGA for some mars bars I do have heaps of different chocolate in my freezer but no mars bars unfortunately do U need to let it cool a bit be4 adding the mars bars?
Lauren
Hi Judith, I’ve never tried making this fudge in a slow cooker before so I’m not sure how it would go. It only needs to cook for around 8 – 10 minutes and it’s a good idea to add the mars bars straight away as the fudge does start to set quite quickly. I hope that helps xx
Judith Clark
Turn out pretty good Lauren & yes did it in my slow cooker miss teen couldn’t wait to try it I’d post a photo but not sure how to put it up on ur site tho
Lauren

Made this with dark chocolate and maltesers……yum…a grown up version which is delicious.And this recipe gives lots of pieces so perfect for gifts too.
Lauren
That sounds great! Merry Christmas x

Just made these and the texture was perfect! The sweetened condensed milk came in a 300ml can, and, not wanting to open another can for the extra 95ml, thought I would risk just adding the 300ml. It turned out nice and firm and was still easy to cut. Also, as I had a lot of unsweetened squares of cholocate on hand, and the mars bars and milk are already very sweet, the flavor was perfect too. Thanks for sharing such an easy recipe!
Lauren
Oh I’m so glad you enjoyed it Margaret! That’s really handy to know about the condensed milk amount, I’ll have to remember that. Thanks so much for your feedback x

How cute is your little helper! Haha would love to see the fudge in the back of his truck lol

Tried this one out, but even after leaving in the fridge overnight, it still hadn’t hardened 🙁
I suspect that this might be because the Cadbury Milk Chocolate here in Australia has different ingredients so that it doesn’t melt in our hot climate during transport.
It has ended up more like a chunky mousse – the flavour is delicious though!
Lauren
Hi Danni,
I’m glad you can still enjoy the fudge even though it hasn’t set properly for you. I’m also from Australia too (Brissy girl!) and find that the fudge doesn’t set rock hard overnight, it still has a little give to it and is more like a soft fudge.
Tamsin
It’s fine
