SUE'S TWO-TONE FUDGE

Sue's Two-Tone Fudge image

My mom's wonderful and easy recipe for fudge, a regular part of our Christmas sweets platter! This fudge is very rich and sweet. The top layer can be butterscotch or cherry chips. I imagine that peanut butter or mint would also work, but we have not tried these variants.

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter
2 cups brown sugar, packed
1 cup sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
7 ounces marshmallow cream
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup butterscotch chips (or cherry chips)

Steps:

Line a 9x9 inch square pan with foil and spray with cooking spray, set aside.
In a heavy saucepan, combine sugars, milk, and butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
Bring to a rapid boil for 5 minutes stirring constantly.
Reduce heat to low and stir in the marshmallow cream until melted/blended.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla.
Pour 2 1/2 cups of mixture into a bowl and stir in chocolate chips and walnuts until the chips are melted. Pour into the 9x9 inch pan.
Add the butterscotch chips (or whatever type you'd like) to the remaining marshmallow cream mixture, stir until chips are melted.
Pour this over the chocolate layer and spread evenly.
Cool completely, then use foil to remove from pan.
Cut and serve.
