Peppermint Cream Fudge Recipes

Steps:

• Combine milk, cream, and 1/2 cup sugar for ice cream in a medium pot over medium heat; bring to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, stir together egg yolks, remaining 1/4 cup sugar, and salt in a small bowl.
• Pour some of the hot milk-cream mixture into the egg yolk mixture, whisking quickly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan. Whisk and cook until custard coats the back of a spoon and does not flow when you run a finger through it, about 3 minutes.
• Transfer custard to a clean bowl and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours but preferably overnight.
• Remove custard from the refrigerator and stir in peppermint extract and food coloring. Pour mixture into an ice cream maker and freeze according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes; add crushed candy canes at the end of the churning time, or right before. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.
• Combine cream, corn syrup, and sugar for hot fudge sauce in a medium saucepan. Sift in cocoa powder, stir, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add chocolate, reduce heat to medium. Simmer, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until completely melted. Remove from the heat and stir in butter, vanilla, and salt.
• Place a scoop of peppermint ice cream into a bowl, dribble on some hot fudge sauce, and sprinkle with additional crushed candy canes.

Steps:

• Line an 8-by-8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil. Spray the foil with cooking spray.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk and stir until melted and smooth. Pour into the prepared baking pan and spread to even out the surface. Sprinkle on the crushed candies. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Lift the foil out of the pan and peel off the fudge. Cut into small squares.

Steps:

• Spray 8-inch square pan with cooking spray. Line with parchment, extending ends of parchment over sides. Spray with additional cooking spray.
• Beat cream cheese in large bowl with mixer until creamy. Gradually add sugar, mixing well after each addition.
• Spoon half the cream cheese mixture into separate bowl. Add unsweetened chocolate; mix well. Press onto bottom of prepared pan, using moistened fingers.
• Add white chocolate and peppermint extract to remaining cream cheese mixture; mix well. Press into even layer over chocolate layer in pan. Smooth top with spatula. Sprinkle with candies.
• Refrigerate 2 hours or until firm. Use parchment handles to remove fudge from pan before cutting to serve.

Steps:

• Put chocolate chips and marshmallow creme in a large mixing bowl with margarine.
• Combine sugar and evaporated milk in a large pot over medium-low heat. Stir constantly and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to low. Continue to stir gently, making sure you do not scrape the edge of the pot. Use a candy thermometer to keep an eye on the temperature, and heat mixture to 240 degrees F (115 degrees C), 7 to 10 minutes. A small amount of syrup dropped into cold water should form a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
• Pour hot sugar mixture over the ingredients in the mixing bowl; stir until combined. Stir in vanilla and peppermint extract until well combined.
• Line a 9x13-inch rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. Pour in fudge mixture and cool in the refrigerator until completely set, about 2 hours.
• Remove fudge from the refrigerator. Run a sharp knife under hot water and cut fudge into 1-inch squares.
