CATEGORIES
INGREDIENTS
  • 4 c. sugar
  • 1 large can evaporated milk
  • 1 stick butter
  • 12 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 16 oz. mini marshmallows
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 c. chopped walnuts (optional)
DIRECTIONS
  1. Butter the sides of a heavy 3 quart sauce pan. Add the sugar, milk, pinch of salt and butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it reaches the soft ball stage. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips, marshmallows, vanilla extract and nuts. Pour into a buttered pan; spread out and cool. I stir constantly because I like my fudge to be a bit grainy but if you like smooth and creamy fudge, stir as little as possible and NEVER put your fudge in the fridge!!!
