Perfect See's Fudge

Ingredients
  

  • 3 small packages of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  • 1 cube of butter – cut up into small pats
  • 2 tsp. vanilla
  • 300 mini marshmallows- which you can have a youngster who is anxious to help count out for you- or – 3 cups- whichever works best for the mom who usually has several things going on at the same time so having a kiddo preoccupied with marshmallow counting can be a good thing.. just make sure you have extra on hand for any marshmallow tasting.
  • 4 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1 can of evaporated milk
  • optional-
  • 2 cups walnuts pecans, or almonds
  • and/or 2 cups Craisins.
  • OR 1 cup of nuts and Craisins.

Method
 

  1. Mix choc chips, butter vanilla and marshmallows, craisins and walnuts in a large bowl and set aside.
  2. Stir evaporated milk and sugar together in a medium sauce pan. Over medium heat, stir until mixture beings to boil. Turn down heat and continue to boil for 7 minutes. This is what makes the fudge so creamy!
  3. When the seven minutes is up, stir hot liquid into bowl of ingredients and stir until marshmallows and chocolate is melted. Pour into a lightly buttered cookie sheet or 9X13, depending on how think you want your fudge to be.
  4. When the fudge is cooled, score with a paring knife. Cover and let it set for 24 hours. Then dish it up. This is really rich fudge so smaller squares is a good thing.
