Fantasy Fudge
We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. I am one of those people who refuse to even think about Christmas until Thanksgiving is actually over. We enjoyed a great meal with family and friends and then when Friday hit, it was time to Christmas #allthethings. We started jamming out to the Christmas music and put the tree up. I changed all of my scents from pumpkin spice to cinnamon and pine. We are officially ready for Christmas to come. I absolutely love this time of year! Bring on the baking and the fudge making! I needed a good base fudge recipe. So I did a lot of research and found the perfect one. This fantasy fudge is the easiest to make. It doesn’t require a thermometer and it is literally the creamiest and best fudge I have ever had!
How do you make fantasy fudge?
Line a 9 inch pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray. This makes it easy to remove and cut into squares. Mix sugar, butter, and evaporated milk in a large sauce pan over medium heat stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring the mixture to a full boil stirring constantly for 4 minutes or until candy thermometer reaches 234 degrees. Remove from the heat and stir in chocolate chips until melted. Add marshmallow creme, walnuts and vanilla. Spread into prepared pan and let cool.
Why is it called fantasy fudge?
It is a classic recipe that originated from the back of a marshmallow creme jar. This recipe has been made for decades and is referred to as fantasy fudge.
How long will fantasy fudge keep?
There really is no set shelf life for fudge. Just make sure to store it in an airtight container at room temperature and it should last for about one to two weeks. If you refrigerate it, it can extend its shelf life to two to three weeks.
Do I need a thermometer for this fudge?
You can make this fudge without a thermometer. You bring the mixture to a full rolling boil stirring constantly for four minutes. However you can use a thermometer if you would like and cook it until it reaches 234 degrees.
