Time 11h2m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

cooking spray
¼ cup butter
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup cold water
3 (.25 ounce) packages unflavored gelatin
2 cups white sugar
½ cup water
1 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Line a 9x13-inch cake or jelly roll pan with aluminum foil; coat with cooking spray.
  • Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat; stir in condensed milk. Pour in chocolate chips; cook and stir until melted, 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Pour chocolate mixture into the prepared pan. Coat a spatula with cooking spray and use to press chocolate mixture into an even layer. Refrigerate fudge until cooled and set, about 2 hours.

  • Pour marshmallow batter over fudge, smoothing the surface with spatula coated with cooking spray. Let sit uncovered at room temperature until completely set, about 6 hours.
  • Dust the top of marshmallow layer with most of the confectioners' sugar. Refrigerate marshmallow fudge for at least 2 hours.
  • Lift marshmallow fudge out of the pan by the edges of the foil and place on a large cutting board. Dip a large knife in the remaining confectioners' sugar and slice fudge into 1 1/2-inch squares, continually dipping knife in the sugar after each slice.
