Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Granulated sugar
- 5 ounces Evaporated milk
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 7 ounces Marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Prepare a 9x9-inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or greasing it lightly.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar, evaporated milk, and unsalted butter.
Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a rolling boil. Continue boiling for 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent sticking or burning.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips, marshmallow creme, and vanilla extract. Continue stirring vigorously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and glossy.
If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or until it is completely set.
Once set, cut into 1-inch squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
