Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients:
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- 3/4 cup unsalted butter (1 1/2 sticks)
- 2/3 cup evaporated milk
- 1 package (12 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×13-inch pan with foil and lightly grease it.
- Cook the Fudge: In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk. Stir constantly and bring to a full rolling boil. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips until completely melted and smooth.
- Finish the Fudge: Add marshmallow creme and vanilla extract, stirring until fully blended. If using, fold in chopped nuts. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly. Let cool at room temperature until set, about 4 hours, or refrigerate to speed up the process. Cut into squares to serve.
Notes
- For best texture, avoid overcooking once the mixture starts boiling.
- You can customize the fudge with peanut butter chips, toffee bits, or different nuts.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or refrigerate for longer storage.
