Since yesterday was officially the first day of December, well I just had to make some Christmas goodies. And yesterday we started off right, with fudge!
This is the easiest most yummy recipe I have ever seen.
First step: Enlist a helper
Second step: Only use the best ingredients
Third Step: Break up the chocolate and try and stop the helper from eating it all
Fourth Step: Combine Chocolate
Fifth Step: Taste test the marshmallow fluff
Sixth Step: Ban "helper" who is eating too much chocolate and fluff
Seventh Step: Take a picture of finished product, which may or may not be already missing a row
And don't worry here is the real recipe now so you can all enjoy it too!
Million Dollar Fudge
1 can evaporated milk
4 1/2 cups sugar
2 T. butter
dash salt
1 pkg (12 oz) chocolate chips
1 bar (12 oz) sweet chocolate broken into pieces ((3 boxes of Bakers chocolate))
1 Jar (8 oz) marshmallow whip
2 1/2 cups chopped walnuts ((optional--I never use))
1. Mix first 4 ingredients in pot; boil and stir for 7 minutes.
2. Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl, mix well. Pour bowling mixture over this. Stir until fudge is creamy.
3. Pour into buttered 13 X 9" pan to cool. Cut when cool ((and scrape all the warm extra fudge from the bowl and eat--oh wait, I made that up))
See--simple! I usually use my pampered chef chopper to chop the Bakers' chocolate. My mom just used to cut all of the squares in half. Also, most of the ingredients marshmallow fluff, etc do not come in those sizes anymore.. but since they are all a bit smaller it works out in the end.
LOL!! I might have to try this one! I've always made my mom's fudge, but it's so labor intensive! Might have to give myself a break this year :)
ReplyDeleteYUM! I just found out that my oven is out of commission until the New Year and need an alternate to baking. This could be perfect, but we could have a big problem with marshmallow fluff in my house :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, fudge! I forgot about that. I'll have to add it to my list . . .haha
ReplyDeleteAren't helpers so helpful?!
At least they're cute!
I love your "helper" pictures. I may have to do that. One of the ways that I bond with my girls is by baking! I make that fudge, but I do it a little differently with mini marshmallows and less sugar.
ReplyDeleteOoooh yum! I'll be there in 10 minutes to help you finish it off. ;) haha.
ReplyDeleteYummy, yummy, yum, yum! I need some fudge.
ReplyDeleteYummy Yummy.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying not to eat any sweets, but fudge always brings back great memories. My grandpa always made me fudge for my birthday and always took me aside to say I didn't have to share it with my 5 siblings. Hehe. Whenever someone gives us fudge it always brings back that memory of my sweet grandpa.

ReplyDeleteVana White eat your heart out, a new helper has come to stay! And what a cute helper (I love the messy face photos) she is!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to try the fudge recipe. I tend to always kill my candies that I attempt, but perhaps the secret is to have that little helper...
That's adorable, except I gained 6 pounds just reading this post.
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy! You would have had to fire me if I was your helper, too, I don't blame her for sneaking tastes. Hehe
ReplyDeletei made white choc covered popcorn. delish:-)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun recipe! And what a cute helper you had.
ReplyDeleteSeriously!?!? I have been wanting to make fudge but I'm intimidated. I think I could actually do this! Thanks!! (yes, I will share my cheese ball recipe with you!)

ReplyDeleteI love making FUDGE!!!! I use the Easy Fantasy Fudge recipe and it turns out every time. Want a hint for making the cleanup easier, line your pan with parchment paper, and voila just throw it away and no big messy cleanup.
ReplyDeleteBy the way that picture of the Fudge is making me want to make some too!!
You can't show me these things. I must make this. . .
ReplyDeleteHappy SITS Saturday Sharefest!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the easy recipe! I am baking today and this will be a great addition! :)
I'm forever trying to master fudge. I'll have to try this recipe!
