Time 3h20m

Yield Makes about 24 one-inch-square pieces of fudge

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup heavy cream
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 3/4 cups mini marshmallows
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
3/4 cup crushed peppermints

Steps:

  • Line 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with strips of waxed or parchment paper; coat evenly with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Combine sugar, salt, butter, cream, and marshmallows in a heavy-bottomed medium saucepan. Set over medium heat; cook, stirring, until butter and marshmallows are almost melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Bring mixture to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. An adult should remove the pan from the heat.
  • Add chocolate chips and vanilla to saucepan. Stir until chips are melted and combined. If you like, mix in 1/2 cup peppermints or nuts.
  • An adult should pour hot fudge into the loaf pan. Top with remaining mints or nuts.
  • Cool fudge in the pan, at room temperature, 3 hours. Grip paper, lift out fudge, and place on cutting board. Discard paper. An adult should cut fudge into squares. Pack in a box lined with waxed paper to avoid sticking.
