Classic Chocolate Fudge Recipe With Nuts
Ingredients You Will Need:
1 7-ounce jar marshmallow crème
1 ½ cups white sugar
�" cup evaporated milk
¼ cup butter
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla
Before you begin, line an 8- x 8-inch pan with wax paper, and set aside. In a large pot, mix the marshmallow creme, sugar, evaporated milk, butter and salt. Over medium heat, bring the mixture to a full boil, stirring constantly. Continuing to stir, boil for 5 minutes.
Next, remove fudge mixture from heat. Stir in both types of chocolate chips. Keep stirring until chocolate is melted and the fudge is smooth. Then stir in walnuts and vanilla. Pour into wax-paper-lined pan. Place in refrigerator to chill for at least 3 hours. Cut this creamy chocolate fudge into squares, and serve.
Variations: Use chips with different flavors. Try white chocolate chips or butterscotch chips. You can also replace the walnuts with chopped pecans or almonds. Add ¼ cup chopped dried cherries for a chocolate-covered-cherry fudge.
