Ingredients

  • 3 cups Granulated sugar
  • 1 can (12 ounces) Evaporated milk
  • 0.75 cup Unsalted butter
  • 4 cups Miniature marshmallows
  • 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 1 cup Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with foil, ensuring the edges hang over for easy lifting later. Grease the foil lightly with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 2

In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar, evaporated milk, and unsalted butter. Stir continuously until the mixture comes to a boil.

Step 3

Once boiling, continue stirring and cooking for 5 minutes. Be sure to stir constantly to prevent the mixture from sticking or scorching.

Step 4

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the miniature marshmallows until fully melted and smooth.

Step 5

Quickly remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips. Keep stirring until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is velvety smooth.

Step 6

Add the vanilla extract and, if desired, the chopped nuts. Stir until evenly incorporated.

Step 7

Immediately pour the fudge mixture into the prepared 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Let the fudge sit at room temperature until completely cool, about 2 hours. For faster setting, you can refrigerate it for 1 hour.

Step 9

Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil overhang. Peel away the foil and cut the fudge into 24 squares or your desired serving size.

Step 10

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Enjoy this rich and creamy treat!
