Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.75 cups Unsalted butter
- 2 third-cup cans (12 oz total) Evaporated milk
- 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
- 1.5 cups Milk chocolate chips
- 1 jar (7 oz) Marshmallow creme
- 1.5 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly with butter. Set aside.
In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, evaporated milk, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heatproof spatula.
Once the mixture reaches a gentle boil, attach a candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan and continue cooking until the mixture reaches 234°F (soft-ball stage). Stir continuously to prevent scorching.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the semisweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, and marshmallow creme until melted and smooth.
Add the vanilla extract and fold in the chopped walnuts, if using. Mix until evenly combined.
Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 3 hours, or until completely set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper and transfer it to a cutting board. Cut into 36 pieces (or smaller if desired).
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or refrigerate for longer freshness.
