Ingredients

• 3 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cups Unsalted butter
• 0.66 cup Evaporated milk
• 2 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 jar (7 ounces) Marshmallow creme
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Chopped walnuts (optional)
• 1 small amount (to grease pan) Cooking spray or butter

Directions

Step 1

Prepare an 8x8-inch baking dish by lightly greasing it with cooking spray or butter. Set aside.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, and evaporated milk.

Step 3

Bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring constantly to avoid burning. Attach a candy thermometer if desired.

Step 4

Once boiling, continue to cook for 4-5 minutes while stirring until the mixture reaches approximately 234°F (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.

Step 5

Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the chocolate chips until fully melted and smooth.

Step 6

Add in the marshmallow creme, vanilla extract, and chopped walnuts (if using). Stir until everything is well combined.

Step 7

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 8

Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or until set. For quicker results, refrigerate for 1 hour.

Step 9

Once firm, cut the fudge into 1-inch squares and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
