Notes
The fudge will set up at room temperature in a few hours. It is sliceable and perfect that way. The layers of fudge will sometimes separate if you attempt to slice it while it is super cold straight from the refrigerator. Set the fudge on the counter and let it warm at room temperature for a few minutes before slicing into bite-size pieces.
