Hot Chocolate Fudge
Description
This Hot Chocolate Fudge blends semi-sweet chocolate chips and a packet of hot chocolate mix with sweetened condensed milk melted together gently on low heat. Stirring until smooth ensures a creamy base. After removing from heat, vanilla extract adds fragrance. The fudge is then poured into a foil-lined pan and topped with cereal marshmallows pressed lightly into the surface, which contributes sweetness and a playful texture.
Chilling the fudge for about four hours allows it to set firm enough to slice and serve. The combination of melted chocolate and hot cocoa mix creates a fudge with a layered chocolate flavor profile and a slight sweetness from the condensed milk and marshmallows.
This fudge can be served as a rich dessert after meals or cut into small pieces for snacking or gifting during colder months.
