Categories     Candies

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 c sugar
2/3 c evaporated milk
2 Tbsp butter
1/4 tsp salt
2 c mini marshmallows
1 2/3 c dark chocolate morsels
3/4 c dried cherries, coarsely chopped
1 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Line 8-inch-square baking pan with foil.
  • 2. Combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter and salt in medium, heavy-duty saucepan. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • 3. Stir in marshmallows, morsels, dried cherries and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until marshmallows are melted. Pour into prepared baking pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Lift from pan; remove foil. Cut into 48 pieces.

Tips:

  • Use fresh dark cherries for the best flavor. Frozen cherries can also be used, but they will not have as intense a flavor.
  • Pit the cherries before using them. You can use a cherry pitter or a knife to remove the pits.
  • Cook the cherries with sugar and a little bit of lemon juice until they are soft and syrupy. This will help to bring out their flavor.
  • Use a good quality chocolate for the fudge. A higher quality chocolate will result in a richer, more flavorful fudge.
  • Be careful not to overcook the fudge. Overcooked fudge will be grainy and dry.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it into squares. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Dark cherry chocolate fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and sweet and tart cherry filling, this fudge is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you are looking for a special treat, give this dark cherry chocolate fudge a try. You won't be disappointed!
