How to Make Aunt Barbara's Creamy Fudge
- In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the sugar, butter, evaporated milk, and chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Continue to boil for exactly 8 minutes, stirring continuously to prevent burning. Use a candy thermometer to ensure the mixture reaches 235°F (113°C).
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt.
- Pour the mixture into a greased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Let the fudge cool completely at room temperature (at least 2 hours). Once cool, cut into squares and enjoy!
- Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
