ROCKY ROAD FUDGE

Homemade fudge is one of the easiest treats you can make. All you need it one can of sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. For this Rocky Road version, we are using semi-sweet chocolate chips, peanuts and mini marshmallows. Big squares of chocolate fudge loaded with nuts, marshmallows, bits of cookies or candy bars. This Rocky Road Fudge is a family favorite and a must for the holidays! Rich chocolate fudge squares filled with fluffy marshmallows and slightly salty peanuts is a must-make treat for Christmas. Perfect to enjoy while watching holiday movies or pack in treat bags for gift-giving.

Rocky Road Fudge Ingredients:

• semi-sweet chocolate chips
• sweetened condensed milk
• mini marshmallows
• peanuts

How to make Rocky Road Fudge?

• Combine chocolate chips and milk in a saucepan and melt over medium heat, stirring often.
• Add nuts and marshmallows and stir in.
• Pour mixture into pan and spread evenly. I like to use an 8″ square pan for thicker pieces but you can also use a 13″ x 9″ pan. You can sprinkle more add-ons over the top.
• Let the fudge set, then cut and pack in treat bags or boxes or place on a serving platter for everyone to enjoy.

How to store this fudge?

I recommend storing fudge in the fridge in a container with a lid.

Can I freeze this fudge?

Yes! You can make this fudge ahead of time and freeze. I recommend freezing it in a block and wrap in a plastic wrap. Then place in a freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw it out, then cut into squares.
