Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan and set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter and chocolate chips together by heating in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth and well combined.
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the sugar, vanilla extract, and eggs until well blended.
- Pour the melted chocolate mixture into the sugar mixture and stir until fully incorporated.
- Add the flour and salt to the chocolate batter, and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Spread the batter evenly into the prepared baking pan, using a spatula to smooth the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
- Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the mini marshmallows evenly over the hot fudge layer.
- Return the pan to the oven for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the marshmallows are puffed and slightly golden.
- Take the pan out of the oven and sprinkle the chopped nuts on top of the marshmallows, pressing them gently to adhere.
- Allow the Rocky Road Fudge Bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
- Serve and enjoy these heavenly fudge bars!
