Directions: |
Directions:Break up the chocolate bar in pieces and dump the chocolate chips, marshmallow cream and nuts into a very large bowl. Prepare a large cookie sheet by covering the bottom with waxed paper. The cookie sheet must have sides.
Using a 4 qt saucepan, heat the milk and butter until the butter melts. Add the sugar and cook over a med heat, stirring constantly till the mixture comes to a boil. Boil for 5 min. (238* on the candy thermometer)
Pour the sugar mixture into the large bowl over the chocolate and marshmallow, stir until everything has melted completely and is mixed together well. Quickly pour onto the prepared cookie sheet and spread out in an even layer. |

Notes: This is one of my top five memories with Mom. She made a double batch of fudge every Christmas and I loved helping her with it. After she got the hot sugar mixture stirred into the chocolate and marshmallow I would help scoop it out onto the kitchen table.
Now when I make it I pour it onto a cookie sheet. It's easier but I'll always treasure the memory of dipping it out with Mom.
Another thing I do different than Mom is that I use a candy thermometer when cooking the sugar mixture. Mom rarely had it turn out bad but if you don’t cook it enough it will not set up properly and if you cook it to long it will be dry instead of creamy and delicious. Shari
