Recipe Introduction


Today show: Chote believes a delicious homemade gift this holiday season is guaranteed to please anyone who receives it. She shares the secret ingredient to making sweet and savory holiday gifts at home in her new book, "Homemade.”


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 milk

Recipe



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.
