You can get a marshmallow spread?? I've been living in the wrong country!! o_O

Oh you poor deprived child.


Seriously good fudge.

Ingredients

3 cups granulated sugar
3/4 cup unsalted butter
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 lb semi-sweet chocolate, chips or block chocolate chopped up
7 oz. jar Marshmallow Fluff
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup chopped walnuts
Method

1 Prepare everything in advance and have ready to go - chopped chocolate, chopped nuts, best to have marshmallow cream already out of the jar and in a bowl that you can easily scrape out with a rubber spatula. Line a 13"x9"x2" baking pan with foil, butter the inside (alternatively, line the pan with waxed paper).

2 In a 3-quart, thick-bottomed saucepan, bring sugar, butter, and milk to a rolling boil on medium heat, stirring constantly once the mixture begins to bubble. Once the mixture reaches a boil, set your timer to 4 minutes. You will want to remove the mixture from the heat once it reaches 234°F on a candy thermometer (234°F at sea-level, adjust for altitude) which should take about 4 minutes. If you don't have a candy thermometer, just go with the four minutes.

3 Remove from heat. Quickly stir in chocolate and marshmallow cream. Once those have melted and are well mixed, stir in the vanilla and then the walnuts.

4 Pour into prepared pan.

5 Cool to room temperature before slicing (about 4 hours). You may want to chill in the refrigerator to get it more firm.

Note: Pecans can replace the walnuts if you're some kind of philistine. It's also okay with no nuts at all. Make only on special occasions unless you want to have a fat ass.

I prefer the manna that is chocolate peanut butter fudge.

In fact you can substitute peanut butter for some of the chocolate but what I prefer is to make the same thing with peanut butter instead of chocolate then take a bite of the chocolate, then a bite of the peanut butter, then a bite of the chocolate...

It's probably worth noting here that I substitute Splenda™ for the sugar, Sugar.

I actually saw almond butter at the local Maxi a few hours ago. Peanut butter of the same size was $1.99, the almond butter .... $6.49.

Almonds are significantly more expensive than peanuts...they're also significantly better for you.
