Valentine's Day Butter Fudge

I thought to share last year's confectionery that my children handed out to the class for Valentine's Day. We had so much fun packaging this sweet, buttery, luscious, melt-in-your-mouth... fudge!

I found this great recipe and loved the fact that it's made with butter. I decided to list the ingredients as well because we live in an allergy aware society (and my son just happens to be one of them).

I found this recipe on Canadian House & Home and went with the miniature marshmallows option. 

"This mouthwatering holiday fudge, with bits of Score or marshmallows, comes from House & Home style editor Michael Penney's sister-in-law, Allison Woodley."

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

Salt to taste

1 tsp vanilla

2 cups confectioners sugar

1 cup Hershey's Score bits or 2 cups miniature marshmallows

Instructions:
Step 1: In a large, heavy saucepan, combine the butter, sugars, cream and salt. Bring to a boil at medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 2: Remove from heat; stir in vanilla. Stir in confectioners sugar until blended. Fold in Score bits or marshmallows.

Step 3: Spread into a buttered 8" square dish (Allison uses a rectangular glass dish lined with waxed paper.) Cover and cool in fridge.

Step 4: Cut into 1" squares. Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
