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 use this recipe every year at Christmastime. I do forget sometimes about the size of the evaporated can because I've ruined the recipe every other year or so. It's the only recipe I use, and everyone loves the walnut fudge that I make!

I have injoyed this recipe for years and i didn't notice that it called for bakers semi weeet baking chocolate, I used my regular flavored chips (chocolate, peanut butter and white chocolate) and used the microwave method. It came out great!

I have made this for many many years and it is excellent however the recipe I have had in the past calls for 1 stick butter not 1 1/2 sticks that the jar said today and it did not set at all this year. I wasted all the ingredients, which does not help the budget. I used candy thermometer, and did not overboil

Here, Here!! Love the old recipe -- have been making as a family Christmas tradition for ALL my life -- lots of GREAT memories tied up in old fudge -- Why the big change?!?! And, thanks, "cooK" for including the old recipe in the message -- though we've been making it for decades, no one copied the recipe down -- we thought we could depend on Kraft to keep providing it on the back of our Marshmallow Cream bottles -- guess we can't depend on Kraft! If it's not broke, don't change it!!!!

This recipe does not set up as well as the old recipe. Thanks to the cook who included the old one in her comments. I've copied it and will use it from now on.

This has been a family favorite for years. My dad started making it when we were kids and it has been passed down through 3 generations so far.
