How to Make Mackinac Island Chocolate Butter Pecan Fudge
- Combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup evaporated milk in a heavy 2 1/2-quart saucepan.
- Bring to a full rolling boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon or heat-resistant spatula.
- Continue boiling for exactly 5 minutes, or until a candy thermometer registers 234°F (112°C), stirring constantly to prevent scorching and ensure even cooking.
- Carefully remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Add 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until completely melted and smooth.
- Stir in 1 cup marshmallow creme, 1 cup pecan halves, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Beat vigorously with a wooden spoon or spatula until the fudge is well blended and creamy.
- Pour the fudge into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Allow the fudge to cool completely at room temperature. This will take several hours. Refrigerating can speed up the process, but may result in a slightly less creamy texture.
- Once cooled and set, cut into squares and enjoy!
