Chocolate-Mallow Fudge
4 cups sugar
1 2/3 cups evaporated milk (not sweetened condensed)
3/4 cup butter
2-6 oz. pkg. semisweet chocolate chips (1-350g pkg)
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 cup coarsely chopped walnuts or pecans
Butter a 9 x 13 inch pan. Combine sugar, milk and butter in a large heavy saucepan. Set over moderate heat and cook, stirring often, until soft ball stage. Don't stir continuously. Remove from heat. Stir in chocolate chips, marshmallows and vanilla. Beat hard with a wooden spoon until chocolate and marshmallows are melted. Stir in nuts. Pour into prepared pan. Chill until firm and cut into squares.

I use a candy thermometer and cook to soft ball stage on it. It comes out perfect every time. Enjoy!
