This is one "rocky road" your taste buds will want to travel on! Our Rocky Road Fudge is the perfect sweet treat for the chocolate lover, the fudge fanatic, and the nutty, marshmallow enthusiast!
What You'll Need
- 4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter
- 1 (12 ounces) can evaporated milk
- 2 (12 ounces each) packages semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 (7 ounces) jar marshmallow creme
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cup miniature marshmallows
- 2 cup coarsely chopped salted peanuts
What to Do
- In medium-sized saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk, and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until mixture comes to a full boil, (7 to 10 minutes). Boil, stirring constantly, until a candy thermometer reaches 228 degrees F or a small amount of mixture dropped into ice water forms 2-inch soft thread (5 to 6 minutes).
- Remove from heat; gradually stir in the chocolate chips until melted. Stir in marshmallow creme until well blended. Stir in vanilla. Stir in marshmallows and peanuts, leaving a marbled effect.
- Spread mixture into lightly buttered 9- x 13-inch baking pan. Cover and refrigerate until completely cooled. Cut into 1-inch squares.
- Store, covered, in refrigerator.
Notes
- If you like your fudge a little softer, store it at room temperature!
- It's best not to substitute margarine for butter in this recipe.
