Make homemade fudge an even sweeter gift with crushed peppermint. This is a great way to use leftover candy canes -- simply put them in a zip-top plastic bag and then pound with a kitchen mallet.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes

Yield Makes 24 two-inch pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
3 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with two strips of waxed or parchment paper (one lengthwise, one crosswise) so ends overhang sides of pan; coat evenly with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Put sugar, salt, butter, cream, and marshmallows in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until butter and marshmallows are almost melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Bring mixture to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chocolate chips and vanilla; stir until chips are melted. Pour mixture into lined pan.
  • Let fudge cool in the pan at room temperature 3 hours. Use edges of paper to lift out fudge; place on cutting board, and remove paper. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters, and top with crushed mints.

  • Use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent the fudge from burning.
  • Stir the fudge constantly to prevent it from curdling.
  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure that the fudge reaches the correct temperature.
  • Add the peppermint extract and green food coloring after the fudge has been removed from the heat.
  • Pour the fudge into a prepared pan and let it cool completely before cutting it into squares.
