Maria says
Hello! Thank you for this delicious recipe! I do have a question, we made this twice for Christmas last year-and I’m thinking that the amount of butter may be too much? Both times they were extremely soft-to the point of needing constant refrigeration or they melted. I have made a similar chocolate marshmallow fudge recipe for years-similar in that it’s chocolate, mini marshmallows and sweetened condensed milk. It only has two tablespoons of butter and the texture is perfect.
This year I will attempt this recipe with only the two tablespoons and I’m expecting the perfect texture.
Thank you!
Debbie says
Maria, I’m getting ready to make this fudge. Did you make it using less butter? Dud it turn out ok?
