Servings: 36 pieces
Ingredients
- 12 oz chocolate chips
- 3/4 cup butter
- 2 ½ cups white granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup full-fat evaporated milk
- 7 oz marshmallow cream or marshmallow fluff
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8X8 inch square pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Add butter to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, spread the butter to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Slowly pour sugar into the center of the pan, and avoid getting sugar onto the side of your saucepan.
- Add evaporated milk, stirring constantly.
- Bring the mixture to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes or until a candy thermometer reaches about 234°F.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the chocolate chips.
- Stir constantly until the chocolate is completely melted.
- Add marshmallow cream and vanilla to the mixture. Mix well.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and let it cool to room temperature.
- Remove the settled fudge from the pan, and cut into smaller pieces. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Do not refrigerate the fudge. You can store it in an air-tight container at room temperature
