Prep Tips

  • Chocolate – We used dark chocolate for the bottom layer, but you can alternatively use milk chocolate chips or semi-sweet chocolate chips. Whatever you have on hand will work!
  • Marshmallows – For the marshmallow topping you can use regular soft mini marshmallows, or dehydrated marshmallows (pictured).
  • Storage – Keep your homemade fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. Homemade fudge usually lasts a long time, but in this recipe, the marshmallows may start to become a bit stale after a week.
