Fantasy Fudge

Yield: 36 small pieces of fudge

Prep Time: 10 min

Cook Time: 12 min

Such a super easy recipe for microwave fudge.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) salted butter
3 cups granulated white sugar
2/3 cup evaporated milk
12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
7 ounce jar marshmallow creme
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

1. In large glass bowl, microwave the butter until it has melted. Add sugar and milk; whisk together well.

2. Microwave on high 3 minutes, then stir, then microwave on high 2 minutes more.

3. Mix well; scraping the sides of the bowl. Microwave on high for 3 more minutes, then stir, then microwave on high for 2 1/2 more minutes.

4. Remove from microwave and add chips. Stir vigorously until melted and smooth. Add the marshmallow creme and the vanilla extract; mix well until you no longer see any white streaks. Pour into greased 9-inch square pan, or 13x9-inch baking pan (depending on how thick you would like your fudge)- I used 9x9-inch for the photo.

5. Cool completely at room temperature. Cut into squares.

Tips:

*If you are a nut-family, by all means add in 1 cup chopped walnuts!
*Keep fudge in a covered container. It should keep for a week or two when stored well.
*This recipe is gluten-free adaptable. Just be sure to use a brand of chocolate chips that is known to be GF.

*If you would prefer not to make this in the microwave, instructions for making it traditionally on the stove are on the back of the Kraft Marshmallow Creme jar.

    This looks fantastic and deceptive since it looks like ordinary chocolate fudge – awesome twist :)

    Can I use unsalted butter? :)

      Sure, but add a little pinch of salt in there to compensate for the loss of flavor!

      I wouldn’t mess with it. If you want to make a PB fudge recipe, I’d look for one that was specifically for PB fudge!
