Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge

I don’t know what’s gotten into me lately, but I am craving sweets ALL the time. And being a Weight Watcher, this can be a deadly path! Sure, I could let myself be bad, go buy a box of chocolates at the store and indulge myself. But instead, I chose to try this rockin’ Weight Watchers Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge Recipe, and I am SO glad I did!! It was a super easy fudge recipe, it tasted delicious, and most importantly, I was able to track my Weight Watchers Points and know exactly how much I was consuming. And with just 2 Points per serving, this fudge recipe was much lower in calories than anything I’d buy at the store. And it was a heck of a lot of fun making candy at home! So if you are looking for a way to satisfy your chocolate fudge craving, give this Chocolate Marshmallow Fudge Recipe a try! It’s seriously one of the yummiest Weight Watchers Fudge Recipes you’ll find.

    This recipe is 3 Points Plus per serving. I looked it up on the WW website and they have the updated values. After I looked it up, I realized I’ve made this before and it’s great! I believe I stirred it though until all the marshmallows melted in, so although it’s “marshmallow” fudge, you don’t see the marshmallows in it! My husband is always asking me to make it – I guess I should comply!!

  • Amanda O

    Rebecca, how much Truvia did you use?

  • Emily

    This fudge is amazing!

    My kids and I make it a lot.

    We are actually going to use it for teacher gifts in another 2 weeks (YEAH!!)

    Thank you for posting this!

    If you do update and put the new points plus plan PLEASE also leave the old points values, as I know A LOT of people still use that method (me included!)

    This recipe is still based on the old Points system. Hopefully I can get around to converting it soon!

  • Lisa

    is this points or pointplus value?

  • Andrea

    Ok so this recipe is deadly haha! I made this and was too tempted to eat all of it. The kids ate it in one day, thankfully because I would of ate too much! Thanks for the chocolate fix, it is very yummy.

    Sorry for the confusion….I've made this recipe quite a few times. The very first time I made it, I used the large, however, when I made it again after that, I found it easier to use the mini. I have a food scale, so I was able to weigh the marshmallows and determine the equivalent amt of minis. BUT….I never updated the blog post with that info. When I replied to comment on June 7th, I responded as to how I made the recipe the very first time. And when i responded on May 5, I was referring to the times I've made them with the minis. I know that all must sound really confusing, but I hope you can make some sense out of it. The bottom line is, you can use either mini or large. Just use a food scale to measure the equivalents.

  • Debbie

    Ok, I'm totally confused. On May 5th, you say you used mini marshmallows, but on June 7th, you said you used the large ones. Would please clarify for me as I would like to make this this week end. Thanks

    The recipe posting is correct…it's 1 and 2/3 cup of sugar. Enjoy!!

  • Lady F

    Do u really use 1 2/3 cups or did you mean to say 2/3? I have been craving sweets lately and would love to try this!… Thanks!

  • Rebecca

    I substituted the sugar for truvia, and it tasted wonderful! Doing this, you can go from having 1/36 of the fudge for 2 points, to having 1/20 of the fudge for 2 points.

    I didn't use the mini, I used the large. And I used 14 of the them. You can use the mini marshmallows if you want, I'm just not sure of the exact number you would need to use. When you are at the store, compare the serving size info on a bag of the large marshmallows and a bag of the mini, and that should help you figure out how many mini marshmallows = 1 large marshmallow. :)

  • kayaraelyn

    Yummy, I love your website

    How many mini marshmallow did you put in

    thanks

    You can chop the marshmallows, but I found it easiest to just use mini marshmallows. :) Works fabulously!

  • http://www.partiesbyhardie.com Jenn

    Are we supposed to chop the marshmallows? I bought the big ones (like you use for roasting) and followed the directions, but without the heat the marshmallows stay huge.

    I haven't experimented with this yet, but I'm sure there is. I'll let you know if I can find a lower calorie alternative to it!

  • Lauren

    Do you think there is any good substitute for the evaporated milk?

  • diana

    hi, would just like to know what 1 2/3 cups of sugar is in grams and 2/3 cups of evaporated milk is in mls it be great if you could help, thanks

  • http://www.laaloosh.com/ LaaLoosh

    Absolutely! Feel free to substitute the sugar for Splenda. It might not taste as good as the regular sugar, but it will def be lower in calories. Good luck and let us know how it turns out!

  • Lise

    hi

    Can we use splenda instead of sugar to lower points or will it be the same. I have a friend who is diabetic and he would love this fudge but he can't cause of the sugar

    Thanks

  • Christina
