Calories: 123kcal
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 2-1/2 cups sugar
- 5- oz can evaporated milk
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 7 oz. jar marshmallow creme
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (you can also substitute dark chocolate)
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 3/4 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a 9"x 9" square baking pan with foil. Grease foil lightly (I use butter for this) and set pan aside.
- Combine butter, sugar, evaporated milk, and salt in a large saucepan. Cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Stir the mixture occasionally, until it comes to a rolling boil. Then reduce the heat slightly, and boil, stirring constantly for 5 minutes.
- Remove from heat.
- Add marshmallow creme, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Beat with an electric mixer until well mixed.
- Spread in prepared pan, and chill for 2-3 hours (or until firm) in the refrigerator.
- Remove fudge from pan (by lifting the foil out of the pan), and peel off the foil.
- Cut into small squares.
Notes
You can also add about 1/2 cup chopped walnuts to this recipe. Stir them in just before spreading fudge mixture into the pan.
This recipe makes about 2 1/2 pounds of fudge.
