Provided by Rachael Ray : Food Network

Categories     dessert

Time 10m

Yield 32 servings (2 pounds)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels
9 ounces (3/4 of a 12-ounce bag) butterscotch morsels
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8-ounce) can walnut halves
1/2 cup (a couple of handfuls) currants
8-inch cake pan, lightly greased with softened butter
Candied cherries, red and green, for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined. Save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately.
  • Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts.
  • The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Categories     Candy

Time 10m

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 2/3 cups sugar (remove 2 tablespoons for a less-sweeter fudge)
2/3 cup 18% table cream or 2/3 cup half-and-half cream
2 tablespoons butter
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 cups mini marshmallows
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
3/4 cup chopped walnuts (optional) or 3/4 cup pecans (optional)

Steps:

  • Butter an 8-inch square pan (or line with foil overlapping on the ends to remove the complete block of fudge).
  • In a saucepan combine the sugar, cream, butter and salt; bring to a boil (careful the mixture does not run over the pot).
  • Reduce heat to medium-low or low and simmer gently for 5 minutes, stirring a few times during cooking (start timing after the mixture is at a full boil).
  • Remove from heat and add in marshmallows, chocolate chips and vanilla; beat vigorously with a wooden spoon or a whisk until the marshmallows and chocolate are completely melted and combined (this should take about 1 minute or less).
  • Mix in nuts if using.
  • Pour the mixture into prepared pan.
  • Cool to room temperature then refrigerate.
  • Cut into small squares.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate: The better the chocolate, the better the fudge will be. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overcook the fudge: Overcooked fudge will be grainy and dry. Cook it just until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help the fudge to set properly and prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator: Fudge will keep for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

This 5-minute chocolate fudge recipe is a quick and easy way to make a delicious dessert. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a rich and creamy fudge that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're serving it at a party or enjoying it as a treat for yourself, this fudge is sure to be a hit.
