Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 6 cups granulated sugar
- 1.5 cups butter
- 1.25 cups evaporated milk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Mix-ins
- 18 oz gluten-free dark chocolate chips
- 15 oz marshmallow fluff
- 1 cup crushed pecans
Instructions
- Prepare Pans: Grease or line two 9 x 13 inch pans with parchment paper to prevent sticking and allow easy removal of the fudge once set.
- Melt Butter and Combine Sugar: In a large saucepan, melt the butter with evaporated milk over medium heat. Add the sugar and continuously stir until the sugar dissolves completely, approximately 4 minutes.
- Add Chocolate and Vanilla: Lower the heat and stir in the gluten-free dark chocolate chips and vanilla extract into the sugar mixture. Continue stirring until smooth and fully combined.
- Incorporate Marshmallow Fluff and Pecans: Remove the pan from heat and quickly stir in the marshmallow fluff until fully incorporated. Then add the crushed pecans, folding them evenly into the mixture. If the mixture thickens too fast, briefly return to low heat while stirring.
- Pour and Cool: Pour the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared pans. Let cool at room temperature for about one hour or until firm enough to slice. Cut into squares or triangles to serve.
Notes
- This fudge recipe is perfect for holiday gifting and festive gatherings.
- Use parchment paper in pans for easy removal and cleanup.
- Return the fudge to heat briefly if it thickens too quickly during mixing.
- For added texture and flavor, optional dried cherries may be added with the pecans.
