Ingredients
Scale
Main Chocolate Ingredients:
- 3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 (14 ounces/397 grams) can sweetened condensed milk
Flavor Enhancer:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Texture Ingredient:
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare an 8×8-inch baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring extended edges for effortless fudge extraction.
- Create a double boiler setup using a heatproof bowl positioned over gently simmering water, carefully melting chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk while continuously stirring until achieving a glossy, uniform consistency.
- Carefully remove the chocolate mixture from heat source and incorporate vanilla extract, stirring until fully integrated.
- Gently fold miniature marshmallows into the warm chocolate mixture, ensuring even distribution throughout the fudge base.
- Transfer the marshmallow-studded chocolate mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to create a smooth, level surface that eliminates potential air pockets.
- Refrigerate the fudge for a minimum of 4 hours, or ideally overnight, allowing it to solidify completely and develop a rich, creamy texture.
- Once fully set, lift the fudge from the pan using parchment paper edges and slice into uniform squares using a sharp knife, wiping the blade clean between cuts for precise edges.
- Serve the chocolate marshmallow fudge at room temperature to maximize flavor and achieve the perfect melt-in-your-mouth consistency.
Notes
- Precise parchment paper placement ensures effortless fudge removal and clean cutting without sticking.
- Gentle double-boiler melting prevents chocolate from burning and creates a silky smooth texture.
- Use mini marshmallows at room temperature for even distribution and better incorporation into the fudge mixture.
- Refrigerate for optimal setting, but allow fudge to sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving for the best melt-in-your-mouth consistency.
