Let’s whip it up!
Ingredients
- ○ 3 cups of semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ○ One can (14 oz) of sweetened condensed milk
- ○ 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- ○ 1 1/2 cups of little marshmallows
- ○ 1 cup of crumbled graham crackers (plus more for the top)
- ○ ½ cup melted chocolate for drizzling (optional)
Tools Needed
- Medium-sized pot
- Spatula that can handle heat
- A baking pan that is 8 by 8 inches
- Paper for parchment
- Spoons and cups for measuring
Instructions
1. Melt the chocolate.
Mix the semi-sweet chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a medium saucepan. Stir the chocolate frequently over low heat until it is totally melted and smooth. Take it off the heat and mix in the vanilla essence.
2. Add the marshmallows and graham crackers to the mix.
Use a spatula to carefully fold in the smashed graham crackers and small marshmallows. Don’t mix too much; you want the marshmallows to stay whole.
3. Put in the pan
Put the fudge mix in a baking pan that is 8 by 8 inches and has parchment paper on the bottom. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly. If you want, you can add more small marshmallows and graham cracker crumbs on top.
4. Put the fudge in the fridge
Put the pan in the fridge and let the fudge cool for at least two to three hours, or until it is totally hard.
5. Cut and serve
Take the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper once it has set. Use a sharp knife to cut into squares and serve!
Tips & Serving Suggestions
- Don’t mix the marshmallows too much. Fold them in gently to keep them from melting. You want that sticky feel!
- Get your pan ready. Put parchment paper in the pan so that the fudge is easy to get out when it’s done.
- Put on some toppings! For a lovely, s’mores-like finish, add more marshmallows and graham cracker crumbs on top before putting it in the fridge.
- Let it cool all the way down. Wait for the fudge to thoroughly harden in the fridge before cutting it into squares.
- Make it even gooey. Before putting it in the fridge, pour some melted marshmallow fluff over top.
- No graham crackers? Instead, use crumbled cookies like vanilla wafers or digestive biscuits.
- For a vegan variation, use dairy-free chocolate chips and coconut condensed milk.
Storage
- You may keep fudge in the fridge for up to two weeks if you put it in an airtight container.
- You can freeze fudge for up to three months. Let it thaw in the fridge before serving.
