S'mores fudge is an easy homemade fudge recipe that's made with plenty of marshmallow for a fluffy chocolate fudge that's ready in 30 minutes!
When it comes to dessert, I'm a cake and cookie kinda girl. I've never been as into ice cream or candy.
However, lately, I've been all about the candy. I was craving some of the fudge that I grew up eating, so I adapted the Kraft Fantasy Fudge recipe to make this S'mores Fudge.
It's a rich, sweet, melt-in-your-mouth kind of fudge, and I like the pieces of graham cracker in the fudge because they add some good flavor and some nice crunch.
This fudge makes a great homemade gift or a welcome addition to a Christmas cookie tray!
How to make s'mores fudge
In a saucepan, bring sugar, butter and evaporated milk to full boil, stirring constantly. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat. Stir in chocolates and marshmallow crème until melted and well-combined.
Add vanilla and mini marshmallows. Stir until melted and combined.
Line the bottom of the pan with pieces of graham cracker. I break the graham crackers into pieces so that they fit better in the pan.
Pour half of the fudge over the graham cracker pieces. Place another layer of graham crackers over fudge.
Pour the remaining half of the fudge in. Top with remaining graham cracker pieces.
Let cool to room temperature before cutting. I also chill the fudge for about 30 minutes to get it to firm up more and to make it easier to cut.
Tips
Tips- Butter: I use salted butter in this recipe. Since fudge can be so sweeet, I find that using salted butter helps to cut a bit of the sweetness.
- Evaporated milk: You can use full-fat, 2%, or skim. Just be sure to use evaporated milk, not sweetened condensed milk.
- Baking chocolate: I use bars of baking chocolate, rather than using chocolate chips.
- The original fudge recipe calls for making the fudge with chocolate chips instead of baking chocolate. However, several people reported that their fudge was grainy. Instead, I recommend using baking chocolate for a smoother fudge.
- Also, I chill the fudge before serving because I get cleaner cut lines in the fudge that way.
Storage
I store the fudge, covered, in the fridge for up to 1 week.
