Paula Deen’s 5-Minute Fudge

This quick and easy recipe delivers rich, creamy fudge in no time. With just a few ingredients and a single saucepan, you’ll have a chocolatey, nutty treat that’s perfect for parties, gifts, or an indulgent snack.


Ingredients:

IngredientQuantity
Granulated sugar1 ½ cups
Evaporated milk¾ cup
Butter1 tablespoon
Semi-sweet chocolate chips6 ounces
Large marshmallows16
Chopped pecans1 cup

Instructions:

Step 1: Set the Stage
Before you begin, gather your ingredients and line a square pan with parchment paper to ensure easy removal later.

Step 2: Warm the Base
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, and butter. Stir continuously until the sugar fully dissolves and the mixture becomes smooth and warm.

Step 3: Add the Chocolate
Stir in the chocolate chips, mixing until fully melted and incorporated into a smooth, velvety base.

Step 4: Melt the Marshmallows
Drop in the marshmallows and stir until completely melted. They’ll give the fudge its signature creamy, fluffy consistency.

Step 5: Fold in the Pecans
Mix in the chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly spread throughout the mixture for added crunch and flavor.

Step 6: Pour and Set
Transfer the mixture into your prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Allow it to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set. Once firm, cut into squares and enjoy!


Serving & Storage Tips:

  • Serving: Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.
  • Storing: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.

A rich, no-fuss fudge that’s always a crowd-pleaser—ready in minutes, enjoyed for days.
