Momma's Easy Fudge
 
 
Make this easy, soft but firm, delicious fudge for any occasion. I like to layer in the nuts rather than stirring them into the mix. It seems to turn out better that way!

Recipe type: Candy
Ingredients
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 20 big marshmallows
  • ¾ cup evaporated milk
  • 2 cups milk chocolate chips
  • ½ cup butter
  • nuts, marshmallows or other add-ins of your choice
Instructions
  1. Butter a 9 X 9 baking dish. I like to use the paper from the butter I am using in the recipe stealing a bit of the butter from the cube if necessary.
  2. Prepare any add-ins by chopping nuts or setting aside marshmallows.
  3. Slice cube of butter into 4 chunks.
  4. In a large pan stir together 2 cups of sugar with ¾ cup evaporated milk and 20 large marshmallows.
  5. Turn heat on to medium-medium high and bring the candy mixture to a boil, stirring constantly to avoid scorching.
  6. When the mixture comes to a boil, boil for 6 minutes and remove from heat.
  7. Stir in butter and chocolate chips and gently stir until they have melted.
  8. Pour into buttered dish.**You may wish to layer add-ins on the bottom of the pan before a first pour, adding more add-ins to the middle and finally finishing the pour. Don't race, but work quickly.
  9. Allow to completely cool and set. I like to let mine set overnight.
