(For a small square pan, approx. 20 x 20 cm)
I. Ingredients
Component Quantity Notes
Fudge Base
Chocolate (Dark or Milk) 400g High-quality chocolate, chopped.
Sweetened Condensed Milk 400g Important: Use sweetened condensed milk!
Butter 30g For shine and smoothness.
Vanilla extract $1 tsp
The “Rocky Road” filling
Mini marshmallows $70 g
Chopped nuts (e.g., walnuts or almonds) $70 g Lightly toasted for better flavor.
II. Instructions (The Easy 5-Minute Mix)
- Preparation
Prepare pan: Line a 20 x 20 cm square baking pan with parchment paper.
Prepare melting: Place the chopped chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a saucepan.
- Melt and mix
Melt: Heat the mixture over very low heat or in a double boiler. Stir constantly until all the chocolate and butter are melted and a smooth, glossy fudge base is formed. Remove the mixture from the heat immediately.
Flavor: Stir in the vanilla extract. 3. Filling and Pouring
Add filling: Let the mixture cool for 2 minutes. Then add the marshmallows and chopped nuts. Stir only briefly so the marshmallows don’t melt completely.
Pour: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and press down lightly.
- Chilling and Serving
Chilling: Let the fudge cool to room temperature before refrigerating it for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
Cutting: Using the parchment paper, lift the fudge out of the pan and cut it into small squares.
