🥘 Ingredients

7 items

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup evaporated milk
• 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 2 cups mini marshmallows
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 pinch pinch of salt

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

2. In a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, evaporated milk, and a pinch of salt.

3. Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves completely.

4. Continue cooking the mixture, stirring frequently, until it comes to a rolling boil. Once boiling, cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly, to prevent the mixture from scorching.

5. Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Keep stirring until they are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.

6. Add the vanilla extract and stir well to combine.

7. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

8. Let the fudge cool to room temperature, then cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the fudge is firm.

9. Once set, cut the fudge into 16 squares or the desired size. Serve and enjoy!
