The Original Fantasy Fudge

A classic marshmallow-crème fudge, the version most people grew up on, made the original way.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 2/3 cup evaporated milk
  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow crème
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • Chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line a 9x13-inch pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium pot, combine the sugar, butter, and milk.
  3. Bring to a full boil over medium heat, stirring constantly so the sugar doesn't scorch on the bottom of the pot, and boil for exactly 5 minutes.
  4. Remove from the heat and stir in the marshmallow crème and chocolate chips until fully melted.
  5. Add the vanilla and nuts if using.
  6. Pour into the prepared pan and let it cool all the way before cutting.

Tip

Stir constantly during the 5-minute boil. This is the step that determines whether the fudge sets right.
