Fantasy Fudge

 Fantasy Fudge is a must at Christmas time.  It's rich and delicious.  Now, I love all types of fudge but this fudge (IMHO) is so much better than those condensed milk ones. 

Ingredients:

• 3 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup unsalted butter
• 2/3 cup evaporated milk
• 12oz bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 jar(7oz) marshmallow creme
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions:

1. Line 9x13 pan with foil.  Make sure foil hangs over sides of pan.  This makes a handle to easily remove from pan.
2. Set up large pot with a candy thermometer.
3. Add sugar, milk and butter to pot.  Bring to a full rolling boil, stirring constantly.  Continue cooking until thermometer reaches 234°F.  Remember to keep stirring or it will burn!  
4. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips and marshmallow creme.  Stir until combined
5. Add vanilla and nuts, if that's your thing.  Mix well.
6. Pour into foil lined pan.  Let cool completely on counter or in fridge.  Remove foil from pan and cut into squares.

Eat and enjoy!
