Ingredients
1 1/2 cups white sugar
2/3 cup Nestlé Carnation evaporated milk
2 tablespoons unsalted butter or margarine
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 1/2 cups Nestlé Toll House semisweet chocolate morsels
1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a medium heavy-duty saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, butter, and salt.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches a full rolling boil.
- Continue boiling for 4–5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent scorching.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the marshmallows, chocolate morsels, chopped pecans if using, and vanilla extract.
- Stir vigorously for about 1 minute, until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the fudge into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for about 2 hours or until firm, then lift out using the foil, remove foil, and cut into squares.
Notes
Stir constantly while boiling to avoid burning.
Do not shorten the boiling time or the fudge may not set.
Use a larger pan if doubling the recipe.
Let fudge sit at room temperature a few minutes before serving for best texture.
