Ingredients

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 0.75 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch pinch of salt

Directions

Step 1

Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish with butter or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.

Step 2

In a medium-sized heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, evaporated milk, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Place the saucepan on the stove over medium heat, stirring constantly until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves completely.

Step 4

Continue cooking the mixture, stirring frequently, until it comes to a rolling boil. Once boiling, cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, stirring constantly, to prevent the mixture from scorching.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Keep stirring until they are fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 6

Add the vanilla extract and stir well to combine.

Step 7

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Let the fudge cool to room temperature, then cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the fudge is firm.

Step 9

Once set, cut the fudge into 16 squares or the desired size. Serve and enjoy!
