How to Make Vanilla Walnut Fudge

  1. Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking dish.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, and 1/2 cup evaporated milk.
  3. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil for exactly 5 minutes, without stopping stirring.
  4. Remove from heat and immediately stir in 10 ounces marshmallow creme and 1 cup vanilla candy coating (white or milk chocolate).
  5. Stir until the marshmallow creme and candy coating are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  6. Gently fold in 1 cup chopped walnuts and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  7. Stir until the walnuts and vanilla are evenly distributed throughout the fudge.
  8. Pour the fudge into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm, before cutting into squares.
