    Rocky Road Fudge is a delicious dessert that combines the smooth, creamy texture of fudge with the crunchy texture of nuts and the sweetness of marshmallows. Typically made with chocolate, this dessert is a favorite among chocolate lovers. It's perfect for satisfying your sweet tooth or for sharing with friends and family at any occasion.

    Rocky Road Fudge

    I'm going to be doing a little mini series on my page called 14 Days of Christmas Recipes and I'll be posting a new Holiday-ish recipe for the next 14 days. Why? This site doesn't have very many Christmas recipes and the second reason is because I want to give myself a challenge. I'll be posting easy dessert recipes, appetizers, and festive drinks for your soul so stick around and gain some weight with me! Just kidding on the weight gain part. But no seriously, when it comes to the Holidays, I want fast and simple recipes to put together.

    One thing I like around the Holidays is fudge. This recipe isn't really a true fudge recipe. Fudge requires heating up sugar and butter and milk in a pot until it reaches a certain temperature. I just like this recipe because you dump the chocolate chips, and condensed milk in a bowl and let that melt in the microwave. Add in whatever you like and pour it into a pan to set. Easy instant "fudge." Or candy, whatever you prefer.

    What is Rocky Road Fudge Made of?

    • 3 cups 8 oz. chocolate chips
    • 1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
    • ¼ teaspoon salt
    • 1 cup unsalted peanuts
    • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows

    How to Make Rocky Road Fudge

    1. Prepare an 8×8 baking dish by lining with foil or parchment paper.
    2. In a medium sized bowl, combine the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and salt. Microwave on high for a minute. Stir.
    3. Addin the peanuts and marshmallows and stir again.
    4. Spread the mixture out into the prepared baking dish and refrigerate until it is completely cold. Remove the fudge from the dish and cut into 16 squares with a sharp knife. Enjoy!
