    1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
    2 (4.67 ounce) packages mint Andes candies (56 pieces total)

    In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, butter and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; cook and stir until a candy thermometer reads 236 degrees F (soft ball stage). Remove from the heat. Stir in candies until melted and mixture is well blended. Stir in Marshmallow Crème and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread into a buttered 15 x 10-inch pan; cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.

    Cut into 96 pieces; roll each into a ball (mixture will be soft). Place on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
