This is by far the best fudge recipe I've tried. The texture is wonderful and while you do cook it, it's not an overly difficult recipe to make. It's honestly the only recipe that's been no-fail for me! Be sure to check out the Peppermint Fudge variation at the bottom.
1 ½ cups sugar
2/3 cup (5 oz. can) evaporated milk
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups miniature white marshmallows
1 ½ cups (9 oz.) Semi-sweet chocolate chips
½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Line an 8 or 9-inch square baking pan with foil Combine sugar, milk, butter, and salt in medium heavy-duty pan. Bring to a full-rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil, stirring constantly for 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in marshmallows, chips, nuts, and vanilla. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until marshmallows and chips are melted. Pour into prepared baking pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Lift from pan; remove foil. Cut into squares.
Peppermint Variation: Use white chocolate chips, omit nuts, use peppermint extract instead of vanilla, and add a little red food coloring. I had to microwave the mixture for 2 minutes on medium heat to melt the chips completely. Follow the directions as written above.
