Here’s the Toll House Famous Fudge recipe—the classic “back-of-the-bag” style fudge from Nestlé.
It’s known for being quick, creamy, and reliably set because it uses marshmallows and evaporated milk.
🍫 Toll House Famous Fudge (Original Style)
Ingredients
- 1½ cups granulated sugar
- ⅔ cup evaporated milk (about a 5 oz can)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (about 1 standard bag)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)
👨🍳 Instructions
- Line an 8×8 inch pan with foil and lightly grease it.
- In a saucepan, combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter, and salt.
- Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Boil for 4–5 minutes, still stirring. Remove from heat.
- Quickly stir in marshmallows, chocolate chips, nuts, and vanilla.
- Stir vigorously for about 1 minute, until smooth and marshmallows melt.
- Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for about 2 hours, then cut into squares.
🍬 Tip
- Don’t overcook the sugar mixture—boiling too long can make it grainy or hard.
- Work fast when adding chocolate and marshmallows so everything melts smoothly.
If you want, I can also give you:
- a microwave version (faster)
- a 2-ingredient fudge hack
- or a rich double-chocolate variation
