  • 1 cup (175 grams) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (175 grams) milk chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 packet (0.73 ounces) hot chocolate mix
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ cup (60 grams) marshmallow bits, divided

EditMicrowave Hot Chocolate Fudge [2]

  • 2 packets hot chocolate mix
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup marshmallow bits

EditSteps

EditStovetop Hot Chocolate Fudge

  1. Cover an 8 x 8-inch pan with parchment paper. Set aside for later use.

  2. Place a medium-sized saucepan on a stovetop. Set the stove onto medium-low heat to use for cooking.

  3. Add the condensed milk, both chocolate chips, and butter into the pan. Mix well with a whisk until fully incorporated.

  4. Pour in the hot chocolate packet once the chocolate melts. Continue stirring until the powder dissolves into the mixture and the ingredients have fully melted.

  5. Add a half cup of the marshmallow bits into the mixture. Stir once more and shut off the stove.

  6. Spread the fudge mixture onto the covered pan. Scrape any remaining mixture using a rubber spatula. Spread around gently.

  7. Sprinkle the remaining marshmallow bits over the fudge. Gently pat them down so they can stick to the surface of the fudge and not fall off.

  8. Set the fudge aside to cool and harden. It will usually take about 4-6 hours for the fudge to set and harden completely at room temperature.
