Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

½ cup powdered sugar

1 cup unsalted butter (melted)

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup milk chocolate chips

½ cup chopped walnuts or pecans (optional)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 pinch of salt

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pan: Line an 8x8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to make lifting out the fudge easier later.

    Make the Base: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and melted butter. Mix until all the crumbs are moistened and you've got a thick, crumbly mixture.

      Press the Base Into the Pan: Transfer this mixture to the lined baking dish. Using the back of a spatula or your hands, firmly press the mixture into an even layer at the bottom of the pan. Set aside while you prepare the fudge layer.

        Prepare the Fudge Layer: In a saucepan over low heat (or in the microwave), melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips with the vanilla extract, stirring until smooth. Once melted, remove from heat and stir in a pinch of salt.

          Layer with Marshmallows: Pour half of the melted fudge over the graham cracker crust and spread it evenly. Sprinkle mini marshmallows over this layer, followed by the optional nuts if using.

            Finish the Fudge: Pour the remaining semi-sweet fudge over the marshmallows, spreading it to cover them completely. Top with additional mini marshmallows and sprinkle a few walnuts or pecans if desired.

              Add Milk Chocolate Drizzle: Melt the milk chocolate chips in the microwave (at 30-second intervals) or on the stovetop until smooth. Drizzle over the top of the fudge to create a beautiful finish.

                Chill to Set: Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-4 hours, or until the fudge is completely set.

                  Cut and Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out of the baking pan using the overhang of parchment paper. Cut into squares or bars and serve chilled or at room temperature.
