List of Ingredients
12 ounces bittersweet or semisweet chocolate, finely chopped
2 cups toasted walnut, pecan, macadamia, or other nuts, chopped
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
20 large marshmallows
4 cups sugar
2 five-ounce cans evaporated milkRecipe
Combine the chocolate pieces, nuts, butter and vanilla in a large heat-proof 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 six minutes.
Remove from the heat and immediately pour the marshmallow mixture into the chocolate mixture; beat constantly until creamy. Quickly pour into the pre-pared pan or platter, pushing slightly with the back of a wooden spoon to spread fudge evenly.
Cool for at least one hour before cutting into pieces. Serve at room temperature.
