Fantasy Fudge

Ingredients

  • 3 cups sugar
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ⅔ cup evaporated milk
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 (7-ounce) jar marshmallow creme 1½ cups
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 cup chopped nuts optional

Instructions

  • Spray a 9x9 (or 9x13) pan with cooking spray. Next, line with parchment paper, leaving overhang on both sides so you can easily lift the fudge out when it’s done.
  • In a medium pot, mix sugar, butter and milk.
  • Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil using medium-high heat, stirring continuously to prevent scorching. 
  • Boil for exactly five minutes. This is important! Set a timer!
  • Remove the mixture from the heat. Working quickly, stir in chocolate chips until smooth.
  • Add the marshmallow creme and vanilla.
  • Optionally, add nuts.
  • Pour into the prepared pan; allow to cool completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

Set a timer: Boil for exactly 5 minutes at a full rolling boil. Less time gives you soft fudge that won’t set.
Work quickly: Measure the chocolate chips, marshmallow creme and vanilla before you start, because the fudge sets fast.
Storage: Keep the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Cut when firm: Let the fudge cool completely before cutting so the squares come out clean.
