Here’s how to make 5 minute Chocolate Almond Fudge:
1. Assemble the ingredients:
- 2 cups sugar
- 2/3 cups evaporated milk
- 1/2 cup butter
- 12 large marshmallows
- dash of salt
- 1 2/3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
2. Line a 8 x 8 inch pan with wax paper and measure out the chocolate chips and vanilla.
3. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, butter, marshmallows and salt.
4. Cook over medium heat until marshmallows are melted and mixture comes to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
4. Remove from heat and working quickly, stir in the chocolate chips and vanilla.
5. As soon as the chocolate chips are melted, pour mixture into the wax paper lined pan. (It sets up quickly, so work fast!) Cool in the refrigerator.
6. When chilled and set, flip the fudge out of the pan and peel off the wax paper. Cut into squares and sprinkle with chopped almonds, pressing them into the tops.
This fudge freezes nicely, so I tuck it away and bring it out for special events during the month of December.
