Ingredients
Scale
For the Fudge:
- 2 ¾ cup granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup plus 2 Tbsp cinnamon sugar mix
- pinch of kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3 cup white chocolate morsels
- 7 oz jar marshmallow cream
For the Drizzle:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 Tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar mix
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line a 13×9 glass baking dish with parchment paper and set aside to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
- Make the Fudge Base: In a large saucepan, combine granulated sugar, unsalted butter, a pinch of kosher salt, ¼ cup cinnamon sugar mix, and heavy cream. Heat over medium until all ingredients are combined and bring to a rolling boil, stirring continuously for 4 minutes.
- Add Chocolates and Marshmallow Cream: Remove the pan from heat. Quickly stir in white chocolate morsels, marshmallow cream, and 2 tablespoons of cinnamon sugar mix. Use an electric mixer or whisk vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth and no chocolate chunks remain.
- Set the Fudge: Pour the smooth fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish. Refrigerate for 3 hours or until the fudge is fully hardened.
- Cut the Fudge: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper. Place on a cutting board and cut into 1 ½ inch circles using a cookie cutter or into small bite-sized squares according to preference.
- Prepare the Drizzle: In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, heavy cream, and 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar mix until smooth. Transfer to a ziplock bag and cut a small opening at one corner for drizzling.
- Drizzle and Garnish: Drizzle the maple cinnamon icing over the cut fudge pieces. Immediately sprinkle with remaining cinnamon sugar mix. Place fudge back in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes until the drizzle hardens.
Notes
- Marshmallow cream (also known as marshmallow fluff) is commonly found in jars near jams, jellies, or baking aisles in most grocery stores.
- You can use a frosting bag instead of a ziplock bag for more controlled drizzling.
- A stand mixer speeds up the process of fully incorporating the white chocolate; mixing by hand requires patience to avoid chocolate chunks.
- If desired, you can skip using a cookie cutter and simply cut the fudge into square bites before drizzling.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator or at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. It also freezes well for up to 3 months.
- Serving the fudge chilled enhances its creamy texture and flavor.
