Halloween Recipe-- Graveyard Gravel

Graveyard Gravel


Prep: 35 minutes Chill: 2 hours Cook: 5 minutes




Graveyard Gravel

Ingredients

  • 3  cups  semisweet chocolate pieces
  • 1  14-ounce can  sweetened condensed milk
  • 2  tablespoons  butter or margarine
  • 1-1/2  tsp.  vanilla
  •   Dash  salt
  • 2  cups  tiny marshmallows
  •     Unsweetened cocoa powder mixed with an equal amount of powdered sugar
  •     Powdered sugar

Directions

1. Line a 9x9x2-inch or an 8x8x2-inch baking pan with foil; set aside.
2. In a medium saucepan, heat and stir chocolate pieces, condensed milk, butter, vanilla, and salt over medium heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat; stir in marshmallows just until combined. Spread mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Using a table knife or thin metal spatula, swirl marshmallows through fudge in pan until marshmallows are mostly melted. Cover and chill about 2 hours or until firm.
3. Using a small scoop, scoop fudge and shape into rocks (fudge will be sticky). Roll some in cocoa powder mixture and some in powdered sugar. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Makes about 80 pieces (2 1/4 lbs.).

For the scoop, I happen to own a melon baller, but even a spoon will do.

Thanks for popping by! Don't sit on the whipping horse unless you want to find out how it's used. I speak my mind and annoy many people, but all of it is meant in good spirit. Feel free to argue with me. I like it.
