  • 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups chopped nuts (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix the sugar and milk in a large, heavy saucepan. Slowly bring the mixture to a rolling boil, and let boil for 7-8 minutes while stirring CONSTANTLY. Remove the pan from the heat, then add the chocolate chips, marshmallows and butter. Mix only until the chips and the marshmallows are melted (DON’T overmix). Next, add the vanilla extract and nuts (if using). Spread the mixture in a large, 13-by-9-inch ungreased pan. Let cool, and then you can enjoy this delicious fudge! -- Heloise
