Description

This creamy, melt-in-your-mouth Fantasy Fudge is a classic treat with semi-sweet chocolate chips, marshmallow crème, and crunchy walnuts. The perfect combination of smooth and nutty, it’s a holiday favorite


Ingredients

Scale
  1. 3 cups granulated sugar
  2. ¾ cup margarine (BlueBonnet brand used)
  3. ⅔ cup evaporated milk
  4. 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (Nestle Toll House brand used)
  5. 7 ounces jar marshmallow crème (Jet-Puff brand used)
  6. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  7. 1 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

  • Line a 9×13-inch straight-sided baking pan with parchment paper, allowing extra paper to overhang the sides for easy removal.
  • In a 3-4 quart saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar, margarine, and evaporated milk. Stir constantly, and cook for 5-8 minutes or until the mixture reaches a hard (or rolling) boil.
  • Once the mixture reaches a hard boil, cook for exactly 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  • Add the semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until melted and smooth.
  • Stir in the marshmallow crème and vanilla extract until the fudge mixture is smooth, with no marshmallow streaks remaining.
  • Add the chopped walnuts and stir to combine.
  • Pour the fudge into the prepared baking pan and spread into an even layer.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before lifting it out of the pan using the parchment paper. Slice into 1-inch squares and enjoy!

Notes

  • Allow the fudge to cool fully to achieve the perfect texture for slicing.
  • You can also add other mix-ins like mini marshmallows or toffee bits if desired.
