Fudge

Fudge is a must at our house at Christmas time each year. Son #2 is especially fond of fudge and occasionally makes it during the year as well. What's not to like about all that CHOCOLATE???

 

Fudge

1 can evaporated milk

1/4 pound butter

4 c. sugar

1 jar marshmallow cream (I use a 7 oz jar)

12 ounces chocolate chips

chopped nuts, optional

Combine the milk, butter, and sugar in a saucepan on the stove. Cook over medium-high heat to 234 degrees, or until it forms a soft ball in cold water, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips and marshmallow cream. Stir thoroughly to mix well. Add nuts, if desired. You are supposed to pour this into a greased 9x13 pan, but I pour it onto aluminum foil and let it harden. Once it's hardened, I cut it into small pieces and enjoy! Can store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
