A gift mug holding a dry chocolate mix and a bag of marshmallows. The tag explains how to microwave it into peanut butter cup fudge.

Ingredients

  • 1/8 cup milk chocolate chips
  • 1/8 cup sugar
  • 6 Reese's miniature peanut butter cups chopped
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows packed in a separate bag
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons margarine (added when cooking)

Directions

  • Place the chocolate chips, sugar, and chopped peanut butter cups in a small zip-top bag, then seal and shake to mix.
  • Place the marshmallows in a separate small zip-top bag.
  • Lay tissue paper in a mug, set both bags inside, and add a tag and a small wooden spoon.

Notes

Gift tag directions: Combine the dry mix with the margarine in a microwave-safe mug and microwave 3 minutes. Stir in the marshmallows right away until melted. Cool 5 to 7 minutes, then refrigerate 8 to 10 minutes to set.
Dry mix: sealed in a cool, dry place, use within about 1 month. Prepared fudge: refrigerate covered up to 3 to 4 days; can freeze up to 3 months (may get crumbly).
