How to Make Carnation Famous Fudge

  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  3. Bring the mixture to a full, rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heat-resistant spatula. This is crucial to prevent burning.
  4. Continue boiling, stirring constantly, for exactly 4-5 minutes. Do not stop stirring!
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat immediately.
  6. Stir in 1 (10-ounce) bag of marshmallows, 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  7. Stir vigorously for 1 minute, or until the marshmallows are completely melted and the fudge is smooth and creamy.
  8. Pour the fudge into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is completely firm.
  10. Lift the fudge from the pan using the foil overhang. Remove the foil.
  11. Cut the fudge into squares and enjoy!
