Ingredients
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Unsalted butter | ¾ cup |
| Granulated sugar | 2 ½ cups |
| Evaporated milk | â…” cup |
| Semi-sweet chocolate chips | 12 ounces |
| Marshmallow fluff | 7 ounces |
| Vanilla extract | 1 teaspoon |
Instructions
Step 1: Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan over high heat, combine the butter, sugar, and evaporated milk. Bring the mixture to a boil while whisking constantly to prevent scorching.
Step 2: Simmer
Reduce the heat to medium and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, continuing to whisk occasionally.
Step 3: Add Chocolate
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the semi-sweet chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth.
Step 4: Mix in Marshmallow and Vanilla
Whisk in the marshmallow fluff and vanilla extract until the mixture is silky and well combined.
Step 5: Pour into Pan
Line a 9×9-inch baking dish with aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray. Pour the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
Step 6: Chill and Serve
Place the pan in the refrigerator and allow the fudge to set for several hours. Once firm, lift out using the foil and cut into squares.
This homemade fudge is perfect for sharing—or keeping all to yourself. Every bite is rich, creamy, and full of nostalgia, making it a dessert everyone will love.
