Description

Ingredients

Scale
  • 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
  • 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (almonds or walnuts)
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8 inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. Combine the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips in a medium saucepan.
  3. Heat the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it boil.
  4. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  5. Fold in the chopped nuts and marshmallows until they are evenly coated.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.

  8. Lift the candy out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares before serving.

Notes

  • Use lightly salted nuts for a contrasting flavor.
  • If you prefer a darker chocolate flavor, substitute dark chocolate chips for semi-sweet.
