How to Make Chocolate Mini Marshmallow Velvet Fudge

This easy to make Marshmallow Chocolate Fudge was my favorite growing up as a child. My mom made it every holiday and it's never a New England Thanksgiving or Christmas without it! It's called 'Velvet' for a reason ~ so smooth and creamy it melts right in your mouth! Make and extra batch for gift-giving!

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 cup evaporated milk
• 2 cups sugar
• 2 (6-oz) packages semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
• Nuts, optional

1. Combine the Evaporated Milk and sugar in saucepan. Place pan over low heat; stir until sugar is dissolved and mixture comes to a boil.

2. Increase the heat and boil the mixture 2 minutes more while stirring constantly. Do not overcook. Remove mixture from heat.

3. Add chocolate chips and vanilla to the mixture; stirring constantly until smooth and creamy.

4. Turn about half the chocolate mixture into wax paper or parchement lined 8-inch square pan.

5. Cover the mixture with mini marshmallows, pressing them gently into the chocolate. Top the marshmallows using the remaining chocolate mixture.

6. Chill mixture until firm. Cut into squares.

Tips & Warnings

• Use colored mini marshmallows if desired.
• Add nuts to mixture if desired.
• Use 8-inch square baking pan or fudge pan
• Use Evaporated Milk only. Do not use Sweetened Condensed Milk.
