How to Make Famous Fudge
- Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, evaporated milk, butter, and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. This is crucial to prevent scorching.
- Continue boiling, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes, ensuring the mixture reaches a full rolling boil.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Stir in the marshmallows, chocolate morsels (use the appropriate type for your chosen fudge), vanilla extract, and nuts (if desired).
- Stir vigorously for 1 minute, or until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the fudge into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is completely firm.
- Once firm, lift the fudge from the pan using the foil overhang. Remove the foil.
- Cut into squares and enjoy your delicious homemade fudge!
