- Stir in the marshmallow.

Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, try using full-fat evaporated milk or adding a splash of heavy cream. If you don't have semi-sweet chocolate, bittersweet chocolate can be a good substitute. Be careful not to overcook the fudge, as it can become grainy. Cooling the mixture in a larger pan will help it set faster. For a fun twist, add nuts or dried fruit.
Serving Suggestions
This fudge is delicious on its own but pairs beautifully with Vanilla Pudding Ice Cream for a delightful dessert combination. Consider serving it alongside coffee or warm milk for a comforting treat. For special occasions, package it in decorative boxes as gifts or serve it at parties as a sweet addition to dessert tables.
Storage & Reheating
Once set, cut the fudge into squares and store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate the fudge, which can extend its shelf life to about two weeks. To enjoy again, let it come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use different types of chocolate in this fudge?
Absolutely! You can experiment with milk chocolate or even dark chocolate to suit your taste preference. Keep in mind that using milk chocolate will make the fudge sweeter, while dark chocolate will give it a richer flavor.
How can I make my fudge firmer?
If you prefer firmer fudge, you can cook it a little longer, but be cautious not to overdo it. Additionally, letting the fudge set in the refrigerator for a few hours can help achieve a firmer consistency, making it easier to cut into neat squares.
What can I do if my fudge is too soft?
If your fudge turns out too soft, you can try refrigerating it for a while to see if it firms up. If that doesn't work, you can reheat it gently and add a bit more sugar to help it set better. Pour it back into the pan to cool again.
