Ingredients

  • 12 ounce box Whoppers roughly 2 1/2 cups
  • 3 cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • pinch of kosher salt
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 11 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 7 ounces marshmallow fluff
  • ¼ cup chocolate ovaltine malted milk powder

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Place whoppers in a large Ziploc bag. Smash them gently (not into fine pieces, but into large chunks). Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan, heat butter, sugar, salt and heavy cream over medium high heat. Bring to a rolling boil while stirring constantly. Set timer and boil for a full FOUR minutes (keep stirring).
  4. Place white chocolate morsels, marshmallow cream and Ovaltine in a large mixing bowl. Pour boiling butter mixture over morsels. Turn electric mixer on medium and combine until white chocolate is melted and smooth. Fold in 1 ½ cup of crushed Whoppers.
  5. Pour into prepared dish. Top immediately with remaining 1 cup of crushed whoppers, pressing them into the fudge. Refrigerate (or allow to set at room temperature) for 3 hours. Cut into bites and serve. Best if eaten within 24-48 hours. ENJOY!

Notes

  • To smash the Whoppers, place them in a gallon sized zip top bag. Use a rolling pin or mallet to crush them into large chunks. Some variety in size of the pieces is best.
  • Boil the butter, cream and sugar mixture on the stove for a full 4 minutes. Stir constantly, keeping the mixture at a rolling boil.
  • Use a stand mixer or beaters to combine the boiled sugar mixture with the marshmallow fluff, Ovaltine and white chocolate. Keep mixing until everything is smooth and combined.
  • The fudge sets up quicker if chilled in the refrigerator. You can leave it at room temperature, but it will take a couple of hours longer to reach a firm slice-able consistency.
