ROCKY ROAD FUDGE
Steps:
- Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper to overhang the edges by an inch.
- Whisk the sugar and cocoa together in a medium saucepan. Whisk in the milk until smooth. Set the pot over medium heat, stirring to keep the mixture smooth, and bring to boil. Continue to boil, stirring the edges to keep from burning, until the mixture reaches 220 degrees F, about 60 seconds. (The mixture should be thick, smooth and glossy, not crystallized.) Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and salt, beating until smooth. Add the peanut butter and stir in, leaving pockets of peanut buttery goodness intact if desired. Let cool until warm but still stirrable, about 5 minutes. (You want the mixture to be soft enough that you can stir in the walnuts and marshmallows, but not so hot that the marshmallows melt entirely.)
- Stir in the marshmallows and walnuts. Spread the mixture in the prepared pan and add the flakey salt and sprinkles. Let cool completely, about 1 hour. Cut into squares to serve. (To store, refrigerate in a covered container with parchment between the layers.)

ROCKY ROAD FUDGE BARS (AKA: BITCHIN' BROWNIES)
If u love gooey chocolate richness then these are for you. 4 layers of brownie, cheesecake, chocolate chip, marshmallow, & nut, and a yummy chocolate frosting swirled with the melted mallows to finish it off. These bars are to die for! Stephanie, a coworker at my bakery I had in 93, nicknamed these "Bitchin Brownies" I got this recipe about 40 years ago from a friend who made these, and I fell in love. I have recently found out that it was a 1972 Pillsbury Bake Off winner. No wonder I love them so much. The recipe reads long but you are making 4 layers. But they are so worth the effort!

Steps:
- In a medium-size saucepan over medium-high heat mix the sugar and milk together. Bring to a boil and cook for exactly 8 minutes (this registers as the soft ball stage on a candy thermometer, if you are using one).
- Remove the mixture from the heat and add the butter and marshmallow creme and stir until smooth. Add the chocolate and mix until melted (if the mixture looks "broken," beat with a wooden spoon or the paddle attachment of a stand mixer until smooth and fluid). Add in the marshmallows, peanuts, vanilla, and salt and mix until incorporated.
- Pour into a greased 9-inch square pan. Cool completely in the refrigerator before removing from the pan and cutting into squares, 3 to 4 hours.
