Tips:

  • To ensure your marshmallow fudge sets properly, use a candy thermometer to reach the correct temperature of 236°F (113°C).
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the doneness of your fudge by dropping a small amount into a cup of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball that holds its shape, it is ready.
  • To make your fudge extra creamy, add a tablespoon of corn syrup to the mixture.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate.
  • To add a pop of color and flavor, swirl in some flavored extract, such as vanilla, peppermint, or almond.
  • Top your fudge with chopped nuts, sprinkles, or crushed candy for a festive touch.
  • Store your fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
