This melt-in-your-mouth-delicious fantasy fudge is silky smooth, studded with sweet-salty candied walnuts and is super easy to make!
If you check The Café recipe archives you'll find lots of delicious fudge variations but I think this classic chocolate fantasy fudge with candied walnuts (an easy but gourmet twist) just might be my favorite version ever!
Calling all chocolate lovers!
I mean who wouldn't love a silky smooth truffle-like fudge with crisp, toasted, sweet and salty walnuts? It's truly a fudge lover's dream come true!
The best part? It's so easy, it's almost shameful! This chocolate fantasy fudge takes less than 20 minutes of hands-on time. It will need a few hours to firm up, but if you're impatient like I am, you can employ the refrigerator to speed things up.
Why is it called "fantasy" fudge?
Fantasy fudge is a classic recipe that's been around for well over 50 years. It originally appeared on the label of Kraft Marshmallow Creme. Why do they call it fantasy fudge? Who knows? I honestly couldn't find any information on the reason for the name. It would certainly make sense though that someone at Kraft took a bite of this fabulous fudge and felt like they were in a chocolate lover's fantasy.
It seems that Kraft changed the recipe on the label at some point and there's lots of complaining about the newer version on the internet. I've never tried the revised recipe but it seems to be a consensus that the original is the best. I've always made the original recipe (with a few adaptations) so I can't tell you the difference.
Comes together quickly!
How is it made? Assemble all of the ingredients near the stove and prepare a 9x13-inch pan by lining it with foil. You'll also want to line a sheet pan with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 325.
To make the easy candied walnuts, simply combine the chopped walnuts, butter, honey and a pinch of salt on the prepared sheet pan. Pop the pan in the oven for a few minutes until the butter is melted and the honey loosens up. Stir the nuts until well coated with the buttery sweet sauce and bake until golden. Let these beauties cool while you're putting together the fudge.
Pull out a heavy-duty, medium-large pot and combine the specified amounts of sugar, butter and half and half (or evaporated milk) over medium heat. Stir until everything is well combined, the butter is melted and the mixture comes to a boil.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words but we have something even better! My daughter-in-law, Lindsay put together a video to demonstrate just how easily this Fantasy Fudge comes together. Check it out:
One simple little trick for no-fail fudge
Most directions for fantasy fudge, at this point, instruct you to let the mixture boil for a specified amount of time, usually 4 or 5 minutes. I've discovered, however (through trial and error), that cooking for a specified amount of time works sometimes, but other times results in the fudge turning out grainy or not setting well.
I've found that using an inexpensive candy thermometer and bringing the boiling mixture to a temperature of 234˚F. ensures consistently perfect results. That's so worth it to me, as I hate wasting good ingredients and/or planning to gift something and having it not turn out well.
When the temperature reaches 234˚F, turn off the heat and immediately add the chocolate chips. Stir until the chips are melted then finish by adding the marshmallow creme, vanilla and most of the candied walnuts, reserving a handful for a pretty topping.
All that's left to do is to transfer the luscious mixture to the foil-lined pan and wait for it to set. That might just be the hardest part of all. But I promise your patience will pay off and you'll be thrilled when you take the first amazing bite of this creamy, dreamy sweet treat!

Cafe Tips for making this Candied Walnut Fantasy Fudge
- Use a heavy-duty metal pan and medium heat to make this fudge. I don't recommend a cast iron, enamel Dutch oven as it can conduct too much heat.
- This recipe calls for 12 ounces of chocolate chips. I really like Ghirardelli's Cacao 60% Chocolate Chips. They are more intensely chocolate than your average semi-sweet chips, however, the butter and marshmallow creme balance that out for delicious results. Beware though, as some companies have changed their bags to 10 ounces instead of 12.
- You'll need 7 ounces of marshmallow cream for this fudge. I like the Kraft brand and I like to purchase the 7-ounce jar (there's also a 13-ounce jar) as marshmallow creme can be a pain to measure. With the 7-ounce jar, you simply scoop out the entire amount.
- As mentioned above, for perfect results use a candy thermometer. A simple one without any special bells or whistles will work well, but I really like this digital thermometer. It's reasonably priced and can be set to alarm when the temperature gets near 234˚F which prevents overcooking.
- This recipe calls for half and half. For those living outside of the United States, half and half is an American convenience product that is often used for coffee. It's a combination of half milk and half cream. You can also use evaporated milk, but whole evaporated milk works better than the reduced-fat variety.
- Lining the pan with foil really helps to remove the fudge from the pan when it's set. I'm a big fan of parchment paper, but foil works much better for this as the parchment tends to tear. I like to use heavy-duty aluminum foil.
- Store at room temperature in an airtight container or ziplock bag for a week. For longer storage refrigerate (2-3 weeks) or freeze (several months).
- This fudge can also be made in a 9x9-inch pan for taller pieces.
Thought for the day:
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress,
my God, in whom I trust.
Psalm 91:1&2

Easy Candied Walnut Fantasy Fudge
Ingredients
For the candied walnuts:
- 1 ½ cups chopped walnuts
- 2 teaspoons butter
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
For the fudge:
- 3 cups granulated sugar
- ¾ cup unsalted butter
- ⅔ cup half and half, (or evaporated milk)
- 12 ounces good-quality chocolate chips, I like to use chips with 50-60% cacao
- 7 ounces marshmallow creme
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extra
Instructions
For the candied walnuts:.
- Preheat the oven to 325˚F. Line a sheet pan with foil for easy cleanup. Spray the foil lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
- Combine the walnuts, butter, honey and salt on the prepared pan. Place in the oven for 3-4 minutes until the butter is melted. Stir well to coat the nuts with the butter/honey mixture. Return to the oven for 5 minutes then stir and bake for another 5-8 minutes or until the walnuts are a medium golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool while you make the fudge.
For the fudge:
- Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil with ends extending over the two long edges of the pan. Spray the foil lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.
- Combine the butter, sugar and half and half in a large, heavy-gauge saucepan over medium heat, stirring until the butter is melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Continue to cook, stirring frequently until the mixture begins to boil. Attach a candy thermometer to the edge of the pan and gently boil until the mixture reaches 234˚F. This can take anywhere from 3 to 7 minutes.
- Remove pan from the heat and immediately add chocolate chips. Stir, stir, stir, until chips are mostly melted then add the marshmallow creme and vanilla. Stir until well combined then fold in 1 cup of the candied walnuts.
- Transfer the fudge mixture to the prepared pan, smooth the surface, then sprinkle with remaining walnuts, pressing them in lightly. Set aside until completely cooled, 3-4 hours. You can also refrigerate the fudge at this point for quicker cooling.
- When cool, pull the fudge out of the pan with the foil overhangs. With a long, sharp knife, cut into 1-inch strips. Cut each strip into 1-inch squares. I like to run my knife under hot water then dry with a paper towel between slices.
- Store at room temperature for up to a week. For longer storage, refrigerate (up to 2 weeks) or freeze (several months).

Hi Chris, 250˚F is way too high. The temp should be 234˚F. To salvage the chocolate (yes, it is expensive!) you could probably put it back in a pot and add half and half to make a chocolate sauce.
Twice I made this and followed exactly with a candy temp I even took off heat at 250 is there something I can do recook as it is expensive using 12 oz of chocolate

I have made your candied walnut fudge for Christmas each year for years….I finally purchased a candy thermometer. What a difference it made. I should have followed your suggestion years ago but sometimes buying one more gadget to store is difficult. This took all of the guesswork from knowing how long to boil candy mixture. I now will begin your easy Christmas cookies. I will make the tree with just green food color and the one with blue background and squiggle tree. These are just some of your recipes that my family has come to expect during special holidays. Blessings to you this season and a sincere thank you for helping me make memories with my loved ones.
Thank you for the review, Jennie! So glad you are enjoying the recipes!

I’ve made fudge several times and wasn’t completely satisfied with consistency. I just went through all my saved recipes and deleted all fudge recipes except this one.

I was so proud to display in my holiday sweet tray. Thank you .

Hi Chris, I made this fudge last week. It is absolutely phenomenal! When I made the candied walnuts I thought they were a bit salty and thought that the next time I would use less salt. But when I mixed them into the fudge, it was the perfect amount of salt that helped with the sweetness of the sugar. I loved the fudge as did my family. I couldn't stop eating it ... delicious. And I loved the candy thermometer... easy to use. Thank you for the recommendation.
Thanks so much for sharing your results, Bernice!
I had lost my original copy of Fantasy Fudge. I was happy to see this post. My husband loves fudge and I typically make it at Christmas. Now, I’ll make it more often with this recipe. No other compares to the original. The candied walnuts are a great addition.
Please send me the label attachment.
Thanks!
Hope you enjoy it, Jill! We will send the labels.
Forgot to ask in previous post, but I would like labels please.
Sure!
I made this fudge last night and this morning my husband had a piece and said to me, “I hope you’re planning to share some of this with friends because I could eat the whole thing!” The fudge is very good, but the candied walnuts take it from very good to off the charts delicious! Thank you Chris! Keep these yummy recipes coming!

Hi Linda, we will send the labels now. I'm not familiar with a Cricut, but I think others have mentioned using it to cut the labels.
I am so sorry for your loss of your sister. I lost my beautiful daughter to cancer five years ago. You will find that God really does hold us up in these times. You will miss her until you see her in Heaven, just as I miss my darling Karen.

Hi Fran, we will send you the labels. I use https://www.avery.com to make my labels. It's free and fun!
This recipe is almost identical to my mom's "Wondrous Fudge" that she made in the 50's. It's been my favorite, even over the fudge from Mackinac Island! Thanks for posting yours - I'm going to try some of the slight differences in your version. Also, could you please email me the .pdf of the labels? Thank you!
That's so cool, Nona! There's nothing like delicious memories from growing up. We'll be happy to send the labels.
Chris,
In addition to gifting us with an abundance of pitch-perfect recipes, your posts remind us of the most important things in life. Though we have never met, I am so grateful to have "discovered" you years ago. I offer heartfelt condolences for the loss of your sister, who now lives freely and fully with our Lord.
I look forward to making the fudge and would love the labels!
Kathy
Aww, thanks so much, Kathy! We so appreciate your encouraging comment and kind sentiments.
Sincere condolences to you and your family.
I’ve made pumpkin spice fudge using a similar recipe.
I will be making this recipe for a Valentine’s Day treat for some neighbours. The printable tag would be a nice addition if you would send it please.
Thanks so much, Kathleen. We will send out the labels tomorrow.
So sorry to read of your sister's passing. May our Father in heaven surround her family with supportive friends. I know the pain of losing a sibling--peace to all of you...
Thanks so much, Marlene. I truly appreciate your kind comment 💕
going to try the delicious looking fudge, can you please send me the stickers, thanks.
Jeri
Hope you enjoy it, Jeri! We will get the labels off to you!
I am going to make this in honor of your sister! Before I even got to the recipe there are tears streaming down my cheeks as I read your message about your sister. They are one of God's most special gifts! I love the song On Eagles Wings....also "Hymn of Promise" by Natalie Sleeth...years ago God gave me acrostic for the word DEATH...Departing Earth Arising To Heaven.
I am sure the fudge will be as sweet as she was!
Aww, thanks so much, Pam. It's making me cry, thinking of you crying 🥰 I love your acrostic, that is so awesome!
Look up into the stars at night see the shiniest star looking down at y’all and feel her smile💕
May Dana rest in peace and y’all find peace

Ps these were great and how I would like the labels if I may ask.
Merci et Bonne journée à tous!
Thanks, Brigitte 💕 I appreciate your kind thoughts. We'll be happy to send you the labels.
I remember making fantasy fudge as a kid. Thanks for all the extra hints & tips. I would love a pdf of your labels.
Judy
You're welcome, Judith! We'll get the labels off to you tomorrow.
i would love your cute labels but I was also wondering where you get the see through pastry boxes.
Hi Colleen, we'll be happy to send the labels. The boxes are from Amazon. I will include a link in the email with the labels.
Thank you for the excellent looking recipe - I'm excited to try it! Question: would it be okay to use parchment instead of foil in the 9x13 pan? I'm trying to switch over as much as possible and I wasn't sure if there was a specific reason for foil? Could you kindly send me the printable labels when you have time. I LOVE your recipes and use them so much the printed ones are all dog-eared and worn. Thank you!!
Chris,
So sad to hear of the loss of your sister. Dana was truly blessed to have you and Scott in her life. Very happy you got to spend quality time with her , before she departed on her journey to the most heavenly place where she can now rest in comfort, with no more pain and suffering. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
Now on to some sweetness , I have to try your fudge recipe, I would love the pdf for the labels and also where do you get the fudge boxes from?
Thanks,
Candace
Thank you, Candance. For us, it's hard to think of a world without Dana but we are really happy for her. We are so thankful to have spent the time with her this past week.
We'll be happy to send the labels.
You're welcome, Barb!
Regarding your question, parchment is usually my choice but it isn't as strong and I've found that it tends to tear when I'm pulling the fudge out of the pan. That being said, if you double the parchment it should work fine.
What a perfect gift for our neighbors on Valentines (or is it Neighbortines) Day?
Have LOVED each and every recipe of yours I've used. ( those shortbread cookies are 'Da Bomb'!)
But as much as my neighbors love those shortbread cookies, am ready to honor them with another one of your classics!
Would love to be able to use your darling label for the Fantasy Fudge to complete the package of love and deliciousness!
Blessings to your family especially now in this time of (temporary) loss.
I have always enjoyed your verses you end with. Thank you for the gentle reminders.
Mic
Thank you, Michelle! So happy you've enjoyed our recipes 💕 We will be sending out labels tomorrow and you're on the list!
Thank you once again for sharing a wonderful treat that's fairly simple but helps me appear to be an excellent cook.
May I please request the printable PDF of these labels. Once again, thank you.
Chris,
My husband is going to love you too. He has the most incredible sweet tooth so I make few sweets so he will stay healthy. He is so bad that I have to hide a portion for another time.
I have to admit that I asked for the labels once but now can’t find. Many thanks for an extra copy.
Carolyn
Hi Carolyn, hope your husband does enjoy this fudge! We will get the labels off to you in the morning.
I was so sorry to know that you are mourning the loss of your precious sister Dana. It is indeed very difficult to lose a sibling and you don't realise how close you were to them until they pass away but may God keep you and sustain you Chris in your journey, remember it is not a sprint but a marathon to walk along the road of grief.
Blessings to you and your family
Carolyn
So true, Carolyn! Thank you for this kind, thoughtful comment!
You're welcome, Debra. We'll be happy to send you the labels.
I’m so sorry about the death of your sister. She was welcomed into Jesus’s arms and that’s a glorious thought. Much love to your sweet family.
Thanks so much, Rhonda 💕 I hope our paths cross again in the near future!
Im so sorry for your loss. God be with you and your family now and forever.
Thank you, Beth. I really appreciate your kind message.
Hi, I love your recipes! I would like to have a printable PDF for the labels for the Walnut Fantasy Fudge. It looks like it will make wonderful gifts. Thank you!
Thank you, Ellen! We will send out the labels tomorrow!
