Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup marshmallow creme
- 1.5 cups powdered sugar
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Grease a 9x9-inch square baking pan with butter or nonstick spray, or line with parchment paper for easy removal. Set aside.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, heavy cream, and butter over medium heat.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low and continue simmering for 5 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, marshmallow creme, and a pinch of salt. Stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
Add in the vanilla extract and powdered sugar. Beat the mixture with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula until thick and glossy, ensuring no lumps remain.
Pour the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or until fully set. For quicker results, refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
Once set, slice into 24 squares or preferred serving sizes. Serve and enjoy!
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
