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.

This recipe does not compare in the least. I searched and found the old recipe on the web. I am so glad it was there. With so much negative commenting, I would have thought you might have reconsidered changing the recipe back! I have used milk chocolate chips, peanutbutter chocolate combo chips and semi sweet chips. All turn out great. I am thinking of trying it with white chocolate chips this year. I love the recipes i have tried from this site with the exception of this fudge remake!

Used the original Fantasy Fudge recipe most of the time. Made it for 11 years for the Simi Valley USD. California. Last year I made 400 pounds. Not a miss print! I have since retired and moved. They asked if I would send some down for Christmas 2006!! (I now live in Alaska.)

My daughter and I have made this for years, and now we are teaching her daughter. I remember one late night around the holidays I got a phone call in panic. My daughter could not find the recipe. We went on line and got it from you. I'ts Great SRSMA

I have been making this fudge for many years. It is by far the best, most creamy fudge I have ever eaten. I even won a blue ribbon at the county fair with it under the microwave cooking category!

The old recipe is so good, this one just does not compare.

I made this without the nuts and it came out perfectly. One major tip is that instead of letting it cool down at room temperature, if you can, put it in your fridge or freezer if you need it to cool down a bit faster. My Family says it's just like the kind you can get in candy shops, except much cheaper. It's a hit with the whole family and great as holiday gifts!

Absolutely delicious! I substituted 12 oz bag of semi-sweet chips for the bar chocolate with no problems. Took some into work and it was gone in 2 minutes-everyone loved it! Melts in your mouth!

I use this recipe (microwave version) every Christmas and so far it turns out perfectly every time.

This is the best fudge recipe I have ever tried. And it is so easy to make, especially if you use the microwave version. Great!
