#3468 - Simple Chocolate Pecan Fudge

(by Shirley McNevich)

1 1/2 cups white sugar
2 TBSP butter
1/4 tsp. salt
2/3 cup Carnation evaporated milk
2 cups mini marshmallows
1 3/4 cups Nestle's MILK chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped pecans + extra for sprinkling
2 tsp. vanilla

Line an 8" fudge pan with foil. In a saucepan over medium heat add white sugar, evaporated milk, butter and salt--melt/stir until boiling. Once boiling, cook/stir for 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat--add mini marshmallows, milk chocolate bits, chopped pecans and vanilla--stir quickly until marshmallows and chocolate are melted and mixture is smooth. Pour the mixture into the foil lined fudge pan. Sprinkle extra chopped pecans over the top of the fudge (optional). Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until firm. Dump the pan upside down on a cutting board, peel off the foil and cut the fudge into squares.
