Oh, Fudge!
Fudge RULES. That's why we whipped up a fancy new recipe for the candy classic, topped with toasty marshmallows and almonds. Happy chewing, people!

Ingredients:
1 box Betty Crocker Fudge Brownies Mix (the 18.3-oz. Family Size box)
2 cups canned pure pumpkin
2 cups mini marshmallows
1/4 cup slivered almonds, lightly crushed
2 tbsp. Hershey's Lite chocolate syrup

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Combine brownie mix, pumpkin, and chocolate syrup in a large bowl, and stir until completely mixed and smooth. (Batter will be thick!) Spray a mid-sized baking pan (8" X 8" works best) with nonstick spray and pour in the mixture. Smooth the top of the batter with a spatula.

Bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Remove pan from the oven, and evenly distribute mini marshmallows across the top of the batter. Sprinkle almonds over the marshmallows. Using a spatula, press down on the marshmallow-nut layer to help it adhere to the batter.

Return pan to the oven, and bake for 10 additional minutes. Remove pan from the oven, and let cool slightly. Refrigerate, uncovered, for several hours, until completely chilled. (Important! Do not cover pan while initially chilling it in the fridge.) Cut into 36 squares and serve!

    This is nice for a graduation party or something.

    I think the reason for so little calories is because it's in a 8X8 pan and you cut it into 36 squares. Those are going to be some tiny squares. It sounds delicious but I'd be eating the whole pan too. :bigsmile:

    Like I said... great for a party.
    It is fudge right? Isn't it suppose to be small servings?

    Gotta build up your self-control at some point.
