👨‍🍳 Instructions

Step 1: Prepare Your Ingredients
Measure out all ingredients in advance for a smooth cooking process. If using large marshmallows, cut them into smaller pieces for easier melting.

Step 2: Heat the Milk and Sugar
In a medium saucepan, combine evaporated milk, granulated sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Place over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Once the sugar has dissolved, continue cooking until the mixture starts to boil.

Step 3: Add the Marshmallows and Chocolate Chips
Once boiling, add the marshmallows and chocolate chips. Stir continuously as they melt into the hot sugar mixture. This should only take a few minutes until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Add Vanilla and Nuts (Optional)
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract. If desired, add chopped nuts for a crunchy texture.

Step 5: Pour the Fudge into a Pan
Pour the hot fudge mixture into a greased or lined 8×8-inch baking dish. Spread evenly with a spatula to ensure it reaches all corners.

Step 6: Let the Fudge Set
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature until it sets. For faster results, refrigerate for about 1 hour.
Once firm, cut into squares and enjoy!
