The chocolate pistachio fudge especially struck me because its a no-bake fudge recipe. Any fudge that doesn't required you to cook it or bake it has to be a winner, right? This one sure is!
Looking for more no-bake recipes? Check out this list of easy no-bake dessert recipes.
This no-bake chocolate fudge only needs 4 ingredients. How much easier can it get?
Oh and also, I hadn't used pistachios in my baking before this. Look at the gorgeous colour! I got a bag from Nuts and Spices in Chennai because pistachio is crazy expensive in Singapore and they are from India anyway.
Nigella's No-Bake Chocolate Pistachio Fudge Recipe
Makes 25 squares, approx
Source: Nigella Express
Ingredients:
70% cocoa chocolate buttons or chopped dark chocolate - 1 cup / 175gm
(I don't recommend chocolate chips for this recipe)
Sweetened condensed milk - ½ can / 200gm
Shelled, unsalted pistachios - ⅓ cup
Butter - 2 tbsp
A pinch of salt if using unsalted butter
How to make Chocolate Fudge (No cook, No bake Fudge)
Transfer all the ingredients except the pistachios to a heavy bottomed pan and keep on medium fire until melted and blended well. Throw in the pistas and gently mix well until it all comes together. Don't cook for more than 5 minutes.
Spread this in a 9" pan lined with aluminium foil. You can use a smaller pan if you want thicker pieces. Cool to room temperature and set in the fridge until the fudge is firm. Cut into desired pieces and freeze.

Ironical...I was eating a piece of Cadburys Fruit & Nut chocolate while reading this. At least I'm not 'craving crying' at your fudge. Wait..my chocolate is done...now I'm crying...I need these. And man, I love that pic of the pista! Periya Pista indeed!
