Kraft Kitchens Tips

Size-Wise

A serving of this sweet treat is 2 squares. You'll find that a small portion goes a long way on chocolate flavor.

Use Your Microwave

To prepare the fudge in the microwave, place butter in 4-qt. 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.

Classic Fantasy Fudge

Prepare recipe as directed, using 3/4 cup butter and substituting 1 pkg. (12 oz.) semi-sweet chocolate chips for the chopped BAKER'S Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate and a 13x9-inch pan for the 9-inch square pan.

I have used this recipe from the Kraft Marshmallow Creme jar a few times, each time realizing too late that it doesn't work for me. (I end up throwing out $$$ each time.) I turn around and make another fudge recipe using only 1/2 c. butter/margarine and it works just fine. Using the 3/4 c. butter/margarine, I overcook it because it doesn't reach the temperature. The other way works perfect!!

Help!!!!! This totally my fault!!!! I can't believe I did such a stupid thing!! When making this fudge I put the marshmallow in with the sugar butter etc. My fudge came out grainey--was it because it wasn't cooked long enough to melt the sugar? I used the candy thermomater or was it because I added themarshmallow at the wrong time? Can I save the fudge somehow?

I have also used this recipe for years. Turns out perfect everytime. I will mostly make peanut butter fudge by using 12 oz of peanut butter chips. I get a lot of request for this fudge.

To - a cook on 11/13/06 from - a cook 11/8/06. I have always used chocolate chips with this recipe and not squares. For the semi/milk/peanut butter chip I use about a half a bag of milk choc chips, a half a bag of peanut butter chips, and about 3/4 cup semi sweet chips, as a substitution. Usually, I am so busy stirring and moving the pan off the heat I eyeball the amount of chips that go into the pan. I hope that helps. I also have used white chocolate chips and swirled the white and dark chocolate fudge, however for some reason it never turns out right. The white chocolate gets a bit like paste. So if anyone has tried using white chips with this recipe with success - let me know the secret.

The recipe was simple and easy. My husband loves it and its the perfect holiday portion size to make. I also made the batch and added 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and it was awesome!
