Make homemade fudge an even sweeter gift with crushed peppermint. This is a great way to use leftover candy canes -- simply put them in a zip-top plastic bag and then pound with a kitchen mallet.

Yield Makes 24 two-inch pieces

Number Of Ingredients 9

Vegetable-oil cooking spray
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup heavy cream
3 1/2 cups mini marshmallows
3 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies

Steps:

  • Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with two strips of waxed or parchment paper (one lengthwise, one crosswise) so ends overhang sides of pan; coat evenly with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Put sugar, salt, butter, cream, and marshmallows in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, until butter and marshmallows are almost melted, 5 to 6 minutes.
  • Bring mixture to a boil; cook, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Add chocolate chips and vanilla; stir until chips are melted. Pour mixture into lined pan.
  • Let fudge cool in the pan at room temperature 3 hours. Use edges of paper to lift out fudge; place on cutting board, and remove paper. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters, and top with crushed mints.

This fudge is delicious, but it's a bit too rich for me. I think I'll try making it with half the amount of butter next time.

I'm not a big fan of fudge, but this recipe changed my mind. It's so smooth and creamy, and the chocolate flavor is perfect.

I had some trouble getting the fudge to set properly, but after a few tries I finally got it right. It was definitely worth the effort, because the fudge was delicious.
