Instructions
Step 1
Line 9-inch square pan with Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Bring sugar, butter and evaporated milk to full rolling boil in large saucepan on medium heat, stirring constantly. Cook 4 min. or until candy thermometer reaches 234°F, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
Step 2
Add chocolate and marshmallow creme; stir until melted. Add vanilla; mix well.
Step 3
Pour into prepared pan; spread to evenly cover bottom of pan. Cool 5 min. Sprinkle with MALLOW Bits and candies; gently press into fudge with back of spoon. Cool completely. Use foil handles to remove fudge from pan before cutting into squares.
For every 1,000 feet above sea level, decrease final recommended cooking temperature by 2°F.
Substitute 1 pkg. (10 oz.) JET-PUFFED Marshmallows or JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallows for the marshmallow creme.
If you are only able to purchase a large (12 oz.) can of evaporated milk, be sure to use only 2/3 cup so that the fudge will set. Reserve remaining milk for another use.
To prepare the fudge in the microwave, place butter in large microwaveable bowl. Microwave on HIGH 1 min. or until melted. Add sugar and milk; mix well. Microwave 5 min. or until mixture begins to boil, stirring after 3 min. Stir well, scraping down side of bowl. Microwave 5-1/2 min., stirring after 3 min. Let stand 2 min. Add chocolate and marshmallow creme; continue as directed.
If you don't have a candy thermometer, bring sugar mixture to full rolling boil, then begin timing 4 min. while mixture continues to boil on medium heat, stirring constantly.
