Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 cups Carnation Evaporated Milk
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Mini marshmallows
• 1.5 cups Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, allowing some overhang on the edges for easy removal. Lightly grease the foil with butter or nonstick spray.

Step 2

In a medium-sized heavy saucepan, combine granulated sugar, Carnation Evaporated Milk, unsalted butter, and a pinch of salt.

Step 3

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a full rolling boil. Once boiling, continue stirring and cook for an additional 4–5 minutes. Use a candy thermometer to ensure the mixture reaches about 234°F (soft-ball stage).

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in mini marshmallows, chocolate chips, and vanilla extract. Keep mixing until everything is thoroughly melted and smooth.

Step 5

If desired, fold in chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 6

Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading evenly with a spatula. Work quickly as the fudge begins to set as it cools.

Step 7

Allow the fudge to cool completely at room temperature, or refrigerate if you prefer a firmer texture.

Step 8

Once cooled, lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil overhang. Cut into 36 squares and serve.

Step 9

Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
