RuthAnne Strong via Chris Strong
Soft, decadent fudge shapes coated in a thin layer of chocolate!
- 1 12 oz. can evaporated milk
- 3 12 oz. packages semi sweet chocolate chips can switch chocolate depending on flavor of fudge you'd like to make (mint, white, peanut butter, etc.)
- 1/2 lb. butter
- 4 1/2 C. sugar
- 1 8 oz. jar marshmallow cream
- 1 tsp. vanilla
- chopped nuts optional
- Guittard, easy to use coating chocolate or melts for dipping
Combine all ingredients, except milk and sugar in a bowl and set aside. Mix milk and sugar in a sauce pan. If making fudge in a pan--boil for 7 minutes at a full rolling boil. If making fudge for truffles--boil for 4 minutes. Pour over other ingredients and stir until smooth. If making fudge in pan pour into a 9x13 pan. Refrigerate until firm. For truffles-put in mold shapes and freeze for 10-15 minutes until set. Once able to remove from mold, carefully remove them and dip into coating chocolate. Let set.
Add in other ingredients after fudge has cooled to room temperature if desired.
