Yield Quantity: Approximately 8 dozen pieces

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 oz bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 cups toasted walnut, pecan, macadamia, or other nuts, chopped, optional
10 tbsps unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tbsp pure vanilla extract
20 large marshmallows
4 cups sugar
2 5-oz cans evaporated milk

Steps:

  • Combine the chocolate pieces, nuts (if using), butter, and vanilla in a large heatproof bowl. Set aside.
  • Place the marshmallows, sugar, and evaporated milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Stirring constantly, bring to a boil. Continuing to stir, boil for exactly 6 minutes.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately pour the marshmallow mixture into the chocolate mixture; beat constantly until creamy. Quickly pour into the prepared pan or platter, pushing slightly with the back of a wooden spoon to spread the fudge evenly.
  • Cool for at least 1 hour before cutting into pieces. Serve at room temperature.
