Instructions:

  2. Add Salt: Once melted, sprinkle in a pinch of salt for a perfect balance of flavors.

  3. Incorporate Nuts: Remove the mixture from heat, then stir in the chopped nuts until evenly distributed.

  4. Infuse Flavor: Add vanilla essence to enhance the fudge’s aroma and taste, stirring gently to combine.

  5. Prepare Pan: Line a 9-inch square pan with wax paper, ensuring it extends over the edges for easy removal later.

  6. Spread Mixture: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to achieve a smooth surface.

  7. Chill: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until the fudge is firm and set.

  8. Cut into Squares: Once firm, remove the fudge from the pan by lifting the wax paper. Place it on a cutting board and peel off the paper. Using a sharp knife, cut the fudge into bite-sized squares.

  2. Add Butter: Include an additional 2 tablespoons of butter to create a smoother texture.

  3. Fold in Marshmallows: After removing the mixture from heat, gently fold in 2 cups of miniature marshmallows until evenly distributed.

  4. Chill and Serve: Proceed with the remaining steps as outlined above to chill, cut, and serve your delicious Marshmallow Fudge squares.
