Fantasy Fudge

I made reference to my Nan's fudge a week or so ago. I have not stopped to make it yet, but here's her recipe (exactly as she wrote it), should you want to try it yourself....

Makes 5 pounds

Ingredients:

• 3 cups pecans
• 1/2 lb butter
• 3 pkgs HERSHEY's chocolate chips
• 3 tsp vanillla
• 4.5 cups sugar
• 1 can Carnation evaporated milk
• 1 pint marshmallow cream

Cooking Instructions:

1. Mix sugar, butter, and Carnation milk
2. Cook over medium heat stirring CONSTANTLY (Because this mixture sticks easily)
3. Bring to a rolling boil that you cannot stir down
4. Start counting SIX minutes as SOON as it comes to a rolling boil (do not over cook it)
5. In a large bowl, place chocolate chips and marshmallow cream and vanilla
6. Pour the hot mixture over the ingredients in the large bowl and mix and beat by hand thoroughly
7. Add nuts
8. Pour on to a large tray or platter to cool

Merry Christmas!
