How to Make Marshmallow Swirl Fudge
Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing an overhang for easy lifting. Lightly grease the parchment paper with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Melt Ingredients: In a large, microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stirring well. Continue microwaving in 30-second intervals until completely smooth and melted, usually 2-3 minutes total.
Add Flavors: Once your mixture is smooth and glossy, stir in the vanilla extract and the pinch of salt until fully combined.
Layer the Fudge: Pour about two-thirds of the chocolate fudge mixture into your prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula for a nice base.
Dollop Marshmallow: Scoop spoonfuls of marshmallow fluff over the chocolate fudge base.
Swirl It Together: Spoon the remaining one-third of the chocolate fudge mixture over the marshmallow dollops. With a butter knife or skewer, gently swirl the marshmallow and chocolate layers together.
Chill to Set: Gently tap the pan to settle the fudge and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until it's completely firm and ready to enjoy.
Cut and Serve: Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper handles, peel away the paper, and with a sharp, warm knife, cut the fudge into 1-inch squares.
For an extra delightful touch, drizzle with melted chocolate or sprinkle with sea salt before serving.
