Ingredients

• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter
• 0.5 cups evaporated milk
• 7 ounces marshmallow creme
• 12 ounces white chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup toasted nuts (pecans, walnuts, or almonds)
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal, and set it aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, and evaporated milk over medium heat. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the mixture begins to boil.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce the heat to a low simmer. Keep stirring for about 4-5 minutes, or until the mixture reaches 234°F (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and quickly stir in the marshmallow creme and white chocolate chips until completely smooth and well combined.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract, toasted nuts, and salt to the mixture. Stir gently to evenly distribute the nuts.

Step 6

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

Step 7

Let the fudge cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.

Step 8

Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and transfer it to a cutting board.

Step 9

Cut the fudge into 1-inch squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
