Ingredients

  • 4 cups sugar
  • 1 large Pet milk
  • 2 large Hershey bars
  • 1 large package chocolate chips
  • 1 pint marshmallow whip
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups coarse nuts
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions

  1. Place sugar and milk in a heavy saucepan; boil for 5 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, combine marshmallow whip, chocolate chips, chopped Hershey bars, butter, vanilla, and coarse nuts.
  3. Pour the boiling sugar-milk mixture over the ingredients in the bowl.
  4. Stir vigorously until well combined and smooth.
  5. Pour the mixture into a buttered 9 x 13-inch Pyrex dish.
  6. Let set at room temperature until firm.
  7. Cut into squares and serve.

Tips & Substitutions

For a smoother texture, ensure your sugar fully dissolves in the milk before boiling. If you prefer a nut-free version, simply omit the coarse nuts or substitute with a seed mix. You can also experiment with different types of chocolate chips to enhance the flavor profile. To achieve a creamier fudge, try adding a splash of heavy cream to the mixture before setting.

Serving Suggestions

Cut the fudge into bite-sized squares for easy serving at gatherings or dessert tables. It pairs beautifully with a glass of cold milk or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. For an extra treat, serve alongside Candy Bar Cookies (Pillsbury Bakeoff) to create a delightful dessert platter that will impress your guests.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftover fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, refrigerate it, where it can last for up to two weeks. If you prefer to enjoy it warm, gently reheat individual squares in the microwave for about 10-15 seconds, just until soft.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use different types of chocolate bars for this fudge?

Absolutely! Feel free to substitute the Hershey bars with your favorite chocolate bars or even a mix of dark and milk chocolate. Just keep the total weight similar to ensure the right consistency.

Is there a way to make this fudge dairy-free?

Yes! You can replace the butter with a dairy-free margarine and use non-dairy milk to cook the sugar. Also, choose dairy-free chocolate chips to maintain the flavor without the dairy.

How do I know when the fudge is set properly?

The fudge is ready when it is firm to the touch and holds its shape after being cut. If it's still sticky or soft, let it sit at room temperature for a few more hours to firm up completely.
