Creamy Milk Chocolate Fudge recipe image

This incredibly simple fudge recipe relies on just miniature marshmallows and sweetened condensed milk to create a texture that is impossibly smooth and creamy. Unlike traditional fudge that requires a candy thermometer and precise sugar stages, this microwave-friendly method is foolproof and quick. The result is a dense, chewy chocolate treat that rivals any store-bought brand. It’s perfect for holiday cookie exchanges, gift baskets, or simply satisfying a sudden sweet tooth. The mild sweetness of the condensed milk balances the rich chocolate chips, while optional additions like nuts or vanilla can elevate the flavor profile further.

Description

This incredibly simple fudge recipe relies on just miniature marshmallows and sweetened condensed milk to create a texture that is impossibly smooth and creamy. Unlike traditional fudge that requires a candy thermometer and precise sugar stages, this microwave-friendly method is foolproof and quick. The result is a dense, chewy chocolate treat that rivals any store-bought brand. It&# 226;ÂÂs perfect for holiday cookie exchanges, gift baskets, or simply satisfying a sudden sweet tooth. The mild sweetness of the condensed milk balances the rich chocolate chips, while optional additions like nuts or vanilla can elevate the flavor profile further.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with wax paper or parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the miniature marshmallows and the sweetened condensed milk.
  3. Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes. Remove and stir well.
  4. Microwave again for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Stir thoroughly after each interval.
  5. Immediately add milk chocolate chips (if using, typically 12 oz) to the hot mixture. Stir until the chips are fully melted and incorporated, creating a glossy, uniform batter.
  6. If desired, stir in chopped nuts or vanilla extract at this stage for added flavor and texture.
  7. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Use a spatula to spread it evenly into the corners.
  8. Let the fudge sit at room temperature for 15 minutes, then cover loosely with plastic wrap.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm enough to cut cleanly.
  10. Lift the fudge out of the pan using the paper overhang. Peel off the paper and cut into 1-inch squares with a sharp knife.
