Ingredients

  • ¾ cup (1 ½ sticks / 170 g) unsalted butter
  • 3 cups (600 g) granulated sugar
  • cup (168 g) evaporated milk
  • 2 cups (364 g) white chocolate chips
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow fluff
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
  • To a large, heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, add butter.
  • Melt the butter and continue to cook it until it is a rich, golden brown. Keep a close eye as it cooks, stirring it every few minutes so that it does not scorch the bottom. The butter should smell toasty and have a beautiful nutty color.
  • Reduce heat to medium. To the browned butter, add the sugar and evaporated milk.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil. Leave on the heat until the mixture reads 234°F-238°F on a candy thermometer (about 10 minutes).
  • Once the temperature reaches 234°F, remove from heat. Stir in the white chocolate chips until mostly combined.
  • Fold in the marshmallow fluff and vanilla.
  • Transfer the fudge to the prepared pan. Let it cool for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
