Ingredients
Instructions
- In an electric skillet set at 350°, mix Carnation milk and sugar.
- Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Turn off heat.
- Add margarine, chocolate chips, vanilla, and marshmallow creme to the mixture.
- Stir until smooth and well combined.

Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier fudge, you can substitute half of the chocolate chips with white chocolate chips. Make sure to stir continuously to prevent the mixture from burning. If you prefer a nutty flavor, consider adding chopped walnuts or pecans. Using a candy thermometer can help achieve the perfect consistency, ensuring your fudge sets correctly without becoming too hard.
Serving Suggestions
Cut the fudge into bite-sized squares and serve as a sweet treat for parties or gatherings. It pairs beautifully with a glass of cold milk or coffee. For a delightful dessert experience, consider serving it alongside Bev'S Chocolate Pudding Cake or as a topping for ice cream.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If you want to keep it longer, refrigerate it, where it can last up to three weeks. To enjoy the fudge again, let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before serving for optimal texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use evaporated milk instead of Carnation milk?
Yes, you can use evaporated milk as a substitute, but the texture may differ slightly. Carnation milk is creamier, so your fudge might be less rich. Adjust the cooking time accordingly to prevent it from becoming too thick.
What can I do if my fudge doesn't set properly?
If your fudge doesn't set, it may be due to undercooking. You can reheat the mixture gently and add a bit more sugar, then cook it a bit longer. Alternatively, pour it into a graham cracker crust for a delicious fudge pie.
Can I add flavorings to the fudge?
Absolutely! You can enhance the fudge by adding extracts like almond or mint in place of or in addition to vanilla. Just be cautious with the amount, as a little goes a long way.
