No other fudge I've tasted comes close to the smooth, chocolate taste of this recipe, which my mother-in-law introduced me to one Christmas (I've never been able to make it as good as she does, though). Since it makes such a large batch, I always save some for last-minute gifts. -Gloria Heidner, Elk River, Minnesota

Yield Makes about 30 chocolate-covered marshmallows

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick cooking spray
2 tablespoons plus 1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup hot water
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup cornstarch
Momma Reiner's Chocolate Fudge

Steps:

  • Lightly spray a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle gelatin over a small bowl filled with 1/2 cup cold water; let stand to soften.
  • In a heavy bottomed saucepan, mix together sugar, corn syrup, hot water, and salt. Place over medium heat and cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved. Continue cooking, without stirring, until mixture reaches the soft-ball stage, about 240 degrees on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat and add gelatin mixture; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on high speed until stiff peaks form. With the mixer running, slowly add sugar mixture. Add vanilla and continue beating for 10 minutes until the mixture looks like marshmallow.
  • Transfer marshmallow mixture to prepared baking dish and spread evenly. Spray a piece of parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray and cover marshmallow. Let stand overnight.
  • Remove parchment paper and invert marshmallow onto work surface. Trim 1/4-inch from edges of marshmallow. Cut marshmallows into 1 1/2-inch squares. Pour cornstarch in a bowl; working in batches, gently add marshmallows and toss to coat.
  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside. Working with 1 marshmallow at a time, insert skewer into a marshmallow and dip in fudge until coated on all sides, removing any excess from bottom of marshmallow; place on prepared baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining marshmallows (you will have some marshmallows left over). Let chocolate covered marshmallows stand at room temperature overnight before serving or transferring to an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Categories     dessert

Time 1h30m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 cup whole milk
Dash of salt
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • Butter an 8 x 8-inch pan. Combine sugar, butter, milk, salt, and chocolate in medium saucepan. Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until all ingredients melt and come to a boil. Do not scrape down the sides of the pan. Lower heat, insert candy thermometer, and let boil slowly without stirring for about 10 minutes or until soft ball forms when dropped in a cup of cold water (238 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Remove pan from heat and cool. Add vanilla. Beat steadily until fudge loses its gloss. Add nuts. Pour into pan. Cool for 20 minutes and cut into squares. Store in airtight container or wrap in tinfoil.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the fudge will taste. Look for chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 70%.
  • Don't overcook the fudge. Overcooked fudge will be grainy and crumbly. Cook it just until it reaches the desired consistency, which is usually about 234°F (112°C).
  • 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 for up to three months in the refrigerator.

Conclusion:

Momma Reiner's Chocolate Fudge is a classic recipe that is easy to make and always a hit. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and creamy texture, this fudge is sure to be a favorite of chocolate lovers of all ages.
