Ingredients

  • 1 cup Unsalted butter
  • 2 cups Granulated sugar
  • 0.75 cup Whole milk
  • 2 cups Semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) Marshmallow cream/fluff
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
  • 0.25 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Grease a 9x9-inch square baking dish or line it with parchment paper for easy removal. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and whole milk.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until the butter is fully melted, and the sugar is dissolved. Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a boil.

Step 4

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continuously. Be careful not to let it burn.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the semisweet chocolate chips, marshmallow cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir vigorously until the chocolate is melted and everything is smooth and well incorporated.

Step 6

If desired, fold in the chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 7

Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula or spoon.

Step 8

Let the fudge cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours or until set. For faster cooling, place the dish in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.

Step 9

Once set, cut the fudge into 24 squares (or your desired size) and enjoy!

Step 10

Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
