MY MOM’S FUDGE

 

Ingredients:

• 2 and 1/2 cups white granulated sugar
• 3/4 cup butter
• 2/3 cup evaporated milk
• 12 ounce package (2 cups) semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 7 ounce jar marshmallow cream (also called marshmallow fluff)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla

Instructions:

Line an 8 or 9 inch square pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Coat with nonstick spray. Set aside.In a 3 quart HEAVY saucepan over high heat, combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk. Use a wooden spoon to stir slowly until butter melts, scraping sides of pan to get all the sugar crystals.Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly with a long wooden spoon. Once it starts boiling, set a timer for 5 minutes and turn the heat down to medium so that you don’t burn your fingers off–it should be boiling the full 5 minutes. Stir constantly.When the timer goes off, remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Stir until all chips are melted and mixture is smooth. Add marshmallow creme and beat with a wooden spoon until well blended. Add vanilla and mix well. Immediately pour into the prepared pan.Let cool to room temperature. (Good luck with that.)
