A good batch of homemade fudge never fails to make me happy! Our recipe for this classic Fantasy Fudge is perfect for making an easy, creamy, chocolatey candy treat!
Marshmallow Fudge
I’m a big fan of old fashioned candies. When we’re talking about toffees and caramels, what’s not to love? I love all these classic recipes for sweet treats, but I’m especially in love with fudges. Although I enjoy peanut butter fudge, there’s always a place for some classic chocolate Fantasy Fudge. This classic recipe became popular after it showed up on the back of Kraft Jet-Puffed containers some years ago.

Ingredients for Easy Fudge
Marshmallow Creme
Chocolate Chips – Go with a semi-sweet here.
Sugar
Margarine
Evaporated Milk
Chopped Nuts – We went with walnuts for our fudge!
Vanilla Extract
How to prepare our Fantasy Fudge Recipe
We’re going to start our fudge recipe by first making a caramel-like mixture. For that, we’ll start heating up our sugar, margarine, and milk in the bottom of a large pot.
Bring this to a full boil before turning the heat to medium and holding the boil for another 5 minutes. Make sure you stir this as much as you can to prevent burning or scorching!
At this point, you can pull the pot from the heat. Add in all the remaining ingredients and mix well to combine. If it seems like something hasn’t melted fully yet, you can carefully put the pot back over low/medium-low heat. Mix constantly until everything has melted.
Transfer the melted fudge over to a parchment lined baking dish like a 8×8 or 9X9. Allow this to sit at room temperature until cool enough to eat.
Once cooled, cut your fudge into squares and enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container: your fantasy fudge will keep for a couple of weeks at room temperature and up to 4 in the fridge.
