Ingredients
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 (7 oz) jar marshmallow crème
⅔ cup evaporated milk
¼ cup butter
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or pecans)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Prep the Pan:
Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil and set aside.
Make the Base:
In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, marshmallow crème, evaporated milk, butter, and salt. Stir constantly and bring to a full boil. Continue boiling and stirring for 5 minutes.
Add the Chocolate:
Remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately stir in milk chocolate chips and semisweet chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth.
Finish the Fudge:
Stir in the chopped nuts and vanilla extract.
Chill to Set:
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Slice and Serve:
Once firm, lift the fudge out using the foil. Slice into small squares and enjoy!
Notes
For nut-free fudge, simply omit the nuts.
This fudge stores well in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Use a candy thermometer if preferred; mixture should reach ~234°F (soft-ball stage) after 5 minutes of boiling.
