A traditional fudge is made with sugar, butter and milk or cream. Though the process may sound simple, getting the right texture can be quite difficult. Making fudge using condensed milk is a much easier shortcut and gives you creamy and smooth textured fudge. Today I’m sharing such a quick and easy chocolate fudge with cherries and marshmallows.
This chocolate fudge just need 10-15 minutes of preparation and about 2-3 hours of cooling. The condensed milk and dark chocolate gives this fudge a rich and creamy texture and I added some nuts for crunch. I have used glacé cherries, but you could fresh cherries or maraschino cherries. Make this delicious chocolate fudge for this Christmas holidays and enjoy.
Wishing all readers and friends a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2016!!!
Cherry Marshmallow Chocolate Fudge
Ingredients
- 360 grams / 3 cups dark chocolate chunks
- 1 tin sweetened condensed milk
- 1 heaped cup red cherries
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 25 g unsalted butter
- ½ tsp sea salt / regular salt
- ¼ cup mixed chopped nuts
Instructions
- Grease a pan and line with parchment paper.
- In a saucepan, add the condensed milk, chocolate, butter and stir on low heat until the chocolate is melted.
- Add the cherries, nuts, salt and mix well until combined. Remove from heat and add the marshmallows and combine.
- Immediately pour into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours or until firm. Cut into squares using a sharp knife.
Notes
- You can use fresh cherries or maraschino cherries instead of glacé cherries.
- I used pistachios, walnuts, pecans, almonds and cashews. You can use nuts of your choice.
