Ingredients
- 2 cups semi-dark chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds)
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 2 cups of semi-dark chocolate chips, 1 can (14 oz) of sweetened condensed milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1 cup of mini marshmallows, and 1 cup of chopped nuts (walnuts or almonds).
- Prepare an 8x8 inch baking dish by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it with cooking spray. This will prevent the fudge from sticking.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the semi-dark chocolate chips and the sweetened condensed milk over low heat. Stir constantly to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and does not scorch.
- Once the chocolate chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth, remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla extract until well combined.
- Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and chopped nuts into the chocolate mixture. Make sure they are evenly distributed throughout the fudge.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Use the spatula to smooth the top if necessary.
- Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 10 minutes, then place it in the refrigerator to set for at least 1 hour.
- Once the fudge is firm, remove it from the baking dish by lifting the parchment paper. Cut it into 24 equal pieces.
- Store the Rocky Road Semi Dark Fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
