Description

Indulge in this rich and creamy Marshmallow Swirl Fudge, featuring a smooth blend of semi-sweet chocolate and sweetened condensed milk with irresistible gooey marshmallow ribbons swirled throughout. This no-bake fudge is easy to make and perfect for satisfying your chocolate cravings with a fun twist.


Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

  • 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp salt

Marshmallow Swirl

  • 1 cup marshmallow fluff (or marshmallow cream)

Instructions

  1. Melt the chocolate: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and melted butter. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and fully melted, avoiding overheating to prevent burning.
  2. Add the vanilla and salt: Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt until fully incorporated, enhancing the flavor of the fudge base.
  3. Pour into the pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Pour and spread the chocolate mixture evenly across the dish to form the fudge layer.
  4. Add the marshmallow swirl: Drop spoonfuls of marshmallow fluff on top of the fudge layer. Using a knife, gently swirl the marshmallow into the chocolate fudge to create visible, thick ribbons without overmixing.
  5. Chill and set: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until fully firm and set, ensuring clean slicing later.
  6. Cut and serve: Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper. Cut into squares with a knife and serve chilled for the best texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Use marshmallow fluff instead of mini marshmallows for smooth and creamy swirls.
  • Gently swirl the marshmallow to keep distinct ribbons visible.
  • Chill at least 2 hours before cutting to get neat squares.
  • For a s’mores twist, sprinkle crushed graham crackers on top before chilling.
  • Lightly torch the top after swirling to add a toasted marshmallow flavor.
  • Dairy-free option: substitute with dairy-free chocolate and coconut condensed milk.
  • Add extra chocolate by folding in ½ cup chopped dark chocolate before swirling.
  • For texture, mix in crushed cookies or chopped nuts.
  • Store fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.
