- 10 ounces milk chocolate bar (such as Hershey bars, broken into pieces)
- 10 ounces Andes Mint Chips (or chocolate & mint chips)
- 10 ounces plain white chocolate try to find actual chocolate bars, not bark
- 12 ounces white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup butter divided
- 8 ounces marshmallow fluff (1 jar) divided
- 4 1/2 cups sugar
- 12 ounces evaporated milk
- 1/2 teaspoon creme de menthe or mint extract
In a large mixing bowl, combine milk chocolate bar pieces, Ande's Mint Chips, 4 Tablespoons butter, and half of the marshmallow whip. Set aside.
In a separate large mixing bowl, combine white chocolate bar pieces, white chocolate chips, 4 Tablespoons butter and remaining marshmallow whip. Set aside.Note: If you are wanting to make the swirls green (as pictured), add some green GEL food coloring (NOT water-based) to the white chocolate bowl. In a LARGE saucepan (it will boil up high), combine sugar, evaporated milk and creme de menthe. Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat. Stir CONSTANTLY for 4 MINUTES.
Pour about a cup of cooked mixture into each bowl of chocolate at a time, stirring as constantly as you can for each bowl (you might want a helper for this part). Try to divide the cooked mixture between the two bowls as evenly as you can.
Stir each bowl until all chocolate is melted and smooth.
Pour about 1/3 of each type of fudge at a time into a greased 9x13 glass baking dish.
Using a knife, swirl the two types of fudge together to make a pretty, swirled design.
Allow to cool to room temperature and then cover and store in an airtight container.
Fudge can be stored at room temperature for 1-2 weeks or in the fridge for 2-3 weeks.
Recipe Tips:
- If you can't find the Andes mint chips or chocolate mint chocolate chips, you can just use regular chocolate chips and add a little extra creme de menthe. For the white chocolate, you can use white chocolate bars or even baking chocolate, just try to avoid using chocolate bark. It is too waxy and will mess with the consistency.
- This fudge is a slightly on the softer side, so if you want it to be a little firmer, boil the milk and sugar for a minute longer. Everyone likes their fudge a little differently, so experiment to your liking.
- To make a gluten-free recipe, just be careful about your chocolate. The really large Hershey bars have gluten in them (why? I have NO idea). The smaller ones are fine though, and most other chocolate won't have gluten, so just be sure to check those labels just to be sure!
