Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×13-inch straight-sided baking pan with parchment paper. Ensure there’s enough parchment paper overhanging the sides for easy removal of the cooled fudge.
- Cook the Mixture: In a 3-4 quart saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, margarine, and evaporated milk over medium heat. Stir to combine and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches a rolling boil.
- Boil the Mixture: Once at a rolling boil, cook the mixture for exactly 5 minutes while stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- Add Chocolate Chips: Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips to the hot mixture and continue stirring until they melt and the fudge becomes smooth.
- Mix in Marshmallow Creme and Vanilla: Add the marshmallow creme and vanilla extract. Stir until smooth, with no streaks of marshmallow remaining.
- Add Walnuts: Stir in the chopped walnuts for a crunchy texture.
- Set the Fudge: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared 9×13 pan, smoothing it into an even layer with a small offset spatula.
- Cool and Slice: Allow the fudge to cool completely before lifting it out of the pan using the parchment paper. Once cooled, slice into 1×1-inch square pieces.
Notes
- Be sure to follow the exact boiling times to achieve the right texture for your fudge.
- Allow the fudge to cool completely to prevent it from being too soft or sticky.
