Fantasy Fudge

Yes, this is the original Fantasy Fudge recipe from the back of the Kraft Marshmallow Creme jar. We'll never know why they changed the recipe on us, but we've preserved the recipe for you right here.

Makes about 117

3 cups sugar
3/4 cup margarine
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 12-oz. (340 g) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 7-oz. (198 g) jar Kraft Marshmallow creme
1 cup chopped nuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Traditional method:
Combine sugar, margarine and milk in heavy 2-1/2 quart saucepan; bring to full rolling bail, stirring constantly. Continue boiling 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring. Remove from heat, stir in chocolate till melted. Add marshmallow creme, nuts & vanilla beat till blended. Pour into greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Let cool and cut into 1-inch squares.

Microwave method:
Microwave margarine in 4-quart microwave-safe bowl on HIGH (100%) 1 minute or until melted. Add sugar and milk; mix well. Microwave on HIGH 5 minutes or until mixture begins to boil, stirring after 3 minutes. Mix well; scrape bowl. Continue microwaving on HIGH 5-1/2 minutes; stir after 3 minutes. Stir in chips until melted. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Pour into greased 13 x 9-inch baking pan. Cool at room temperature; cut into squares. Makes 3 pounds.

If you like this recipe try making it with peanut butter chips(it take 2 bags) or the white chips (takes 2 bags too) I make this every year for christmas presents. You can't go wrong with homemade gifts. five stars

I remember this recipe being on the back of the Nestle's Semi-sweet morsels bag. It only used 1-1/2 cups sugar, and you cooked the marshallow cream with the butter, sugar and milk. Brought it all to a rolling boil, cooking for 5 minutes stirring continuously, remove from heat, stir in chocolate chips & vanilla. MUCH better recipe than this one and any others.

Made this years ago when I was dating my husband. He was working in D.C. and I shipped it to him from GA. He still says it was the best ever. Now, 15 years later I am so happy to find the recipe and make it again. I can't wait. Thanks! five stars
