I made these and the fudge was super YUM! Instead of making plain marshmallows I made Chai flavored. Pretty easy and fun to make. Great gift idea for the holiday season!

We made these for Christmas presents this year. Personally I think these make the best fudge I’ve ever eaten, but they make pretty awesome hot chocolate, too, if you let them get that far. I’ll be making these again, probably won’t wait til next Christmas.

I finally made these this past Christmas. I ran out of steam last year. They were awesome. The marshmallows added the perfect touch. I gave some away and the rest lasted us about two weeks. I thought it was already getting a bit dry by then. They still tasted great but seemed to take a bit more effort to melt. I don’t know if I can go back to the same old hot cocoa after those!

What kind of neutral oil does everyone use? Thanks!

I made this recipe around Christmas-time and modified it into a second version that used about half milk-chocolate (which resulted in a softer, chewier outcome, with a less intense richness that everybody seemed to find equally pleasing).

I found that, stored in the aluminum pans I made them in, in a plastic grocery bag that was loosely tied shut, these babies lasted from when I made them just before Christmas until we finished them all off sometime in February. The original recipe ones got a teeny, tiny bit dry on the outside, but were still soft in the center. The milk chocolate ones firmed up slightly over time, but more or less stayed soft and chewy.

The only thing I wished for was my KitchenAid for the marshmallows – my poor little hand-mixer did the job, but under protest.

I made this last night, marshmallows and all, and I couldn’t be happier or more tempted to eat sinful amounts of fudge and marshmallows…

I made these and gave them away as gifts. Kept some for us, and they were delicious!

I made these this past weekend. I cut them up and place them in a mini-cupcake liner top with a jumbo marshmallow stuck a stick in it and wrap with plastic wrap. I purchased some $1 coffee cups, made a gift tag that gave the instructions to melt in warm mik and then made a tag that had the ingredients and with the instruction on how to make it. Oh yeah, I also put the web address on the gift tag. My daughter gave these out as gifts to her 7 junior high teachers. I made extra for little happys for other people.

Oh, also I’m not crazy about chocolate but this makes really good hot milk chocolate.

This recipe is awesome. I just made a batch of the fudge and the marshmallows and I can hardly keep my hands out of them and they haven’t even set yet.

Lorelei- They last exactly two days in our house. That’s because I refuse to let the bottomless pits eat them all in anything less than two days. As far as how long they would last in a family with more self-control, I would assume that with the high sugar content they would last between one and two weeks tightly wrapped at room temperature!
