Halloween Gravel (Fudge Candy) image

I got this recipe from the Better Homes and Gardens website. I placed the fudge "rock" candies in a crystal centerpiece, and then scattered a few pastic spiders for a quick Halloween decoration. I didn't eat the candy myself, but my kids said they were pretty good (and they were gone in a matter of hours, so they must have been pretty good). Even if you don't eat them, these are a handy treat to use for enhancing your Halloween decorating. Cooking time includes minimum chilling time. The recipe make about 2 1/4 pounds of candy, or about 80 rock-shaped fudge candies.

Time 2h30m

Yield 2 1/4 pounds, 80 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 dash salt
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa, power (for coating)
1/2 cup powdered sugar (for coating)
1 -2 cup crushed chocolate cookies (optional)

Steps:

  • Line a 9x9-inch pan with foil; set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, stir chips, canned milk, butter, vanilla and salt together over medium heat until melted.
  • Remove pan from heat; stir in marshmallows just until blended. Spread mixture in foiled pan.
  • With a thin metal spatula, swirl marshmallows through fudge until marshmallows are mostly melted. Cover and chill about 2 hours or until firm.
  • After adequately chilled, scoop pieces of fudge with a small spoon and shape into small rocks. (The fudge will be sticky).
  • Roll some of the fudge "rocks" in cocoa powder mixture and some in powdered sugar.
  • Store rock candy in airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • For a spooky graveyard scene, spread chocolate cookie crumbs on a platter. Arrange the rock candy on top, to resemble rocks in soil.

I'm not a big fan of fudge, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so creamy and smooth, and the gravel topping adds a nice crunch.

This fudge is delicious! It's the perfect combination of chocolate and peanut butter. The gravel topping is a fun and festive touch.

This fudge was really good, but it was a little too rich for me. I think I'll try making it with half the amount of butter next time.

This fudge was a disaster. It never set properly and it tasted like burnt sugar. I would not recommend this recipe.

This fudge is so rich and decadent, it's almost like eating a candy bar. The gravel topping is a nice touch, but I think it would be just as good without it.
