1 pint marshmallow creme

  • Don't overcook the fudge: Fudge is done when it reaches a temperature of 234 degrees Fahrenheit (112 degrees Celsius). If you overcook it, it will become grainy and crumbly.
  • Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help it to set properly and prevent it from crumbling.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in a cool, dry place: Fudge will keep for up to two weeks at room temperature, or up to three months in the refrigerator.
  • Get creative with your toppings: You can add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even bacon to your fudge to give it a unique flavor.
