Chocolate, marshmallows, and nuts – what an amazing combination! When I was making Rocky Road Bark, I started thinking that a Rocky Road Fudge would be incredibly awesome…and it is! This is now my favorite fudge recipe. The chewy marshmallows and crunchy almonds make a wonderful contrast to the creamy fudge.
To keep the marshmallows from melting in the hot fudge mixture, you must freeze them for several hours before hand. If you would like a step by step tutorial of how to make fudge, you will find it on my recipe for Easy Homemade Fudge.
Decadent Rocky Road Fudge
Ingredients
- 3/4 cup butter

- Stir in chocolate chips until they are completely melted and completely mixed in.
- Add vanilla; stir well.

Notes
To keep the miniature marshmallows from melting, you must freeze them for several hours pror to adding them to the fudge mixture.

Hmm. I like fudge, but not Rocky Road ice cream. Shane likes Rocky Road ice cream, but doesn’t like fudge. I’m not sure anyone here will eat this if I make, yet I feel compelled to pin it on Pinterest.
LOL! This could either be the perfect compromise or a complete disaster for you two!
Thanks for sharing this forward.
