Candy Corn Fudge

Ingredients

• 1 7-oz. jar marshmallow cream
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 2/3 cup evaporated milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2 cups candy corn (about 12 oz.)
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup salted peanuts, chopped
• 1 ounce semisweet chocolate, chopped, optional
• 1 ounce white chocolate, chopped, optional

Preparation

1. 1. Line an 8-inch square pan with foil; butter foil. Combine marshmallow cream, sugar, evaporated milk and butter in a large, heavy pan. Bring mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture reaches 235°F on a candy thermometer, 10 to 15 minutes.
2. 2. Remove from heat and stir in candy corn, chocolate chips and peanuts, stirring until chocolate melts. Immediately transfer to foil-lined pan and smooth top until even. Chill until set, at least 2 hours.
3. 3. In separate bowls over pans of simmering water, melt semisweet and white chocolate, if desired. Using forks, drizzle both chocolates over fudge. Cut fudge into squares.
