It’s time for Karen’s Killer Fixin’s! Over the years, I’ve filled two 4-inch, 3-ring binders with my own creations as well as recipes my family and friends were willing to share with me. I simply love to cook and want to share that love with my readers. So every Friday, I share one recipe I think you and your family might enjoy. It might be a main course recipe from my own kitchen or a guest author favorite. It could be a cookie or baked item. Candy. Salads. Whatever strikes the eye and fancy…which today is LAYERED MINT CHOCOLATE FUDGE!
I love mint and chocolate together. I’m a fan of Andes Mints. This recipe blends the tastes that I love beautifully. It’s amazingly easy to make, too.
I hope you enjoy today’s Killer Fixin’s. Happy eating!

I do this same recipe or at least I have. Super easy and yummy. Ohhh – I have a nondairy condensed milk made from coconut milk. I will have to try this. Yum!
Perfect! I’d be interested in your version of this recipe. My daughter can’t do the dairy thing. Enjoy!
Let us know , please, Sam…haven’t seen coconut milk condensed…😊
Me, neither. Is it a special order or in the stores?
I’ve made bourbon fudge, raspberry fudge, even tequila ‘Mexican chocolate ‘ fudge, but never mint layered fudge. I’ll have to try this one! Thank you Karen!
Oh, yum! Raspberry and bourbon and Mexican chocolate fudge! I also make cherry fudge, with or without the actual cherries. Enjoy!
Sweet goodness! Thanks, Karen.
You’r welcome, K.A. Enjoy!
I’m with you on the combo of mint and chocolate. Thank you for this recipe. I’ll definitely be trying.
I hope you enjoy it, Eileen!
This sounds delicious!
