Marshmallow creme and two
types of chocolate makes this fudge extra luscious!
Million
Dollar Fudge
- 4 1/2 cups granulated
sugar
1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk
1 (12-ounce) package or 2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 (12-ounce) package or 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 (7-ounce) jar or 2 cups marshmallow creme
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans or
walnuts* (optional)
- Combine sugar and evaporated
milk in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil
and cook for 6 minutes.
- In a large bowl, combine
milk and semisweet chocolate chips, marshmallow creme, butter
and vanilla.
- Pour milk mixture over
chocolate mixture and stir until smooth.
- Fold in pecans then pour
into a buttered 13 x 9 x 2-inch baking pan.
- Allow to cool before cutting
into 1 1/2-inch squares.
*Roasting the nuts gives
them a more delicious flavor and added crunch. This can be done
in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat, stirring constantly,
until they are golden and fragrant. Or, on a baking sheet in
a 300°F (160°C) oven, stirring occasionally, for about
5 to 10 minutes or until done, keeping a close eye to prevent
the nuts from burning as this can happen all too suddenly.
Makes 48 pieces.
