Is anything better than creamy peppermint fudge topped with marshmallows, white chocolate, and candy canes?! NOPE!

Ingredients:

  • 1 bag (12oz) white chocolate morsels
  • 1 bag (10oz) Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips
  • 7 oz jar marshmallow creme
  • 1/2 cup of unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup of heavy cream
  • 2 cups of granulated sugar
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 pkg (16oz) vanilla Candiquik, melted
  • 3 cup Mini Peppermint Marshmallows
  • 5 peppermint candy canes, broken

Directions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, add white chocolate morsels, Andes baking chips and marshmallow creme, then set aside.
  2. Prepare a 13×9 baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, then set aside.
  3. In medium saucepan, heat butter, heavy cream, sugar and salt over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and continue stirring. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
  4. Pour over morsels and marshmallow creme, beating with a whisk until smooth and melted. (I highly suggest using an electric stand or handheld mixer- this fudge is thick)! Pour fudge into prepared baking dish.
  5. Melt vanilla candiquik according to package directions. then allow to cool slightly (about a couple minutes). Fold in the mini marshmallows and pour over top of fudge. Immediately sprinkle with the broken candy canes. Allow fudge to set for about 2-3 hours. Cut into bites and enjoy!

    When you say heavy cream, do you mean like whipping cream? Or half and half?
