How Do You Make Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge?
- Using a knife, carefully break apart chocolate (skip if using chocolate chips)
- Add chocolate to a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl.
- Pour in sweetened condensed milk, marshmallow fluff, and vanilla. Using 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff has a stronger marshmallow flavor, but the fudge is softer. Use 1/4 cup for a more firm fudge.
- Microwave for 90 seconds, then stir. Continue to microwave in 15-30 second increments just until the chocolate is melted.
- Pour chocolate fudge mixture into a 9×9 inch pan and let harden, about 60-90 minutes.
- Cut into squares.
Make These changes To Customize your fudge:
- Use white chocolate
- Stir in peanut butter rather than marshmallow
- Add nuts
- Add mini chocolate chips right before spreading into the pan
- Swirl marshmallow into fudge rather than mixing it in
How to make this easy fudge recipe with sweetened condensed milk.
Start by breaking up the chocolate into smaller pieces, which helps the chocolate melt more quickly.
Kitchen Tip: Skip this step and use chocolate chips if preferred. Using chocolate bricks will save you some money though.
Next, add the chocolate into a medium sized microwave safe bowl.
Add the can of sweetened condensed milk.
Do Not substitute this for evaporated milk or regular milk! The recipe will not work if you were to do that.
Scoop the marshmallow fluff into the mixture and add the vanilla.
Kitchen Tip: For a stronger marshmallow flavor use 1/2 cup marshmallow fluff. For more firm fudge use 1/4 cup of marshmallow fluff.
The fudge will be very soft if you use 1/2 cup of marshmallow fluff, but the flavor is delicious! 
Heat in the microwave for 90 seconds.
Remove and stir.
Place the bowl back into the microwave and continue heating in 15-30 second intervals, stirring in between, just until the chocolate is melted. 
Once the chocolate is melted, pour this old-fashioned chocolate fudge recipe into a 9×9 inch pan.
Let the fudge harden for about 60-90 minutes or until set. Cut into squares and it’s ready for serving! 
Can you freeze homemade fudge?
- Make sure the fudge is properly cooled before freezing.
- Don’t store in the door portion of the freezer as it’s the warmer spot.
- Prevent ice crystals and freezer burn by using an air-tight container and wrapping with parchment paper or wax paper.
- If storing fudge in layers, place a piece of wax paper between the layers.
