This Malted Milk Chocolate & Walnut Fudge has rich milk chocolate, marshmallows, crunchy walnuts and a little malty flavor that adds something a little extra to this fudge recipe.
The holidays always call for fudge! Don’t you agree? The thing that I love most about fudge too is that everyone makes it differently. Whether it’s a classic chocolate and nut combination or loaded with goodies I have to admit that I haven’t ever met a piece of fudge that I did not like.
Another great thing about fudge, it’s SO EASY TO MAKE!
The inspiration for this fudge recipe comes from my love of malted milk powder. It is something I always have on hand. It’s so good in plain or chocolate milk, shakes, even morning oatmeal.
Then I added marshmallows thinking of the hot chocolate that we make while it’s cold outside. Finally, add the nuts for a crunchy texture.
How to make Malted Milk Chocolate & Walnut Fudge:
In a microwave proof bowl add the milk chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.
Microwave the mixture in 45-second intervals, stirring in between to combine the ingredients. It should take about 4-5 rounds until everything is well combined.
To the bowl add the marshmallows, walnuts and malted milk powder. Stir to mix everything together.
In an 8″x8″x pan add non-stick tin foil. Lightly grease the tin foil then add the fudge mixture to the pan.
Put the fudge into the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Make sure the fudge has set before trying to cut.
Cut into 25 pieces and serve.
Tips for making fudge:
- Since the chocolate mixture is hot the marshmallows will melt some.
- Store any leftover fudge in a container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Just printed this for a party we’re throwing. Malted milk powder is going to put these over the top! I can’t wait to take a bite. Great recipe.
Wonderful! I hope you and your guests enjoy it. Happy holidays.
Oh, my! I do love an easy homemade fudge. Never thought of making a malted chocolate version… this has got to taste better than that nasty malt-o-meal stuff we were served as kids! Looking forward to trying this recipe! 🙂
Yes, think of a chocolate malted shake. Thank you so much!
I agree the malted milk chocolate adds a little something extra special! So good!
Thank you, Tisha!!
I love walnuts in fudge, and the malted milk really makes this recipe stand out!
Walnuts are so good in fudge, I agree! Thank you, Tara.
I love that you used whole walnuts! That looks so delicious, no need to go shopping for a chocolate bar, if you have these on hand.
Yes! So easy and it does use ingredients that are usually found lying around during the holidays.
