Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

  • 2 cups high-quality semi-sweet or milk chocolate chips
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Swirl

  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Pan: Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving some overhang on the sides to lift the fudge out easily once set.
  2. Melt the Chocolate Mixture: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Stir constantly until fully melted and smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
  3. Add Vanilla: Remove the pan from heat and stir in vanilla extract until evenly blended, infusing the fudge with its warm flavor.
  4. Pour and Swirl in Marshmallows: Quickly pour the melted chocolate mixture into the prepared pan. Evenly sprinkle mini marshmallows on top, then use a knife or skewer to gently swirl them into the fudge, creating a marbled effect.
  5. Chill and Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the fudge to firm up completely before cutting into squares.

Notes

  • Use quality chocolate for a richer, smoother fudge.
  • Stir gently and constantly while melting to prevent burning or seizing.
  • Add marshmallows after removing from heat to keep their texture.
  • Chill fully and use a hot knife for clean cuts.
  • Store fudge airtight in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
