Million Dollar Fudge

Now we get into true chocolate decadence - fudge! I love fudge and so does Mike, so this is an absolute "yes" for Christmas baking. Here's a wonderful recipe that I got from  allrecipes.com a while back. It has "it" all and just a little bit more.

Million Dollar Fudge

Ingredients:

• 4 1/2 c white sugar
• 1 pinch salt
• 2 tbsp butter
• 1 (12 fl oz) can evaporated milk
• 2 c chopped nuts (preferably walnuts or pecans)
• 1 (12 oz) pkg semisweet chocolate chips
•  12 (1 oz) squares German Sweet chocolate
• 2 c marshmallow creme

Directions

1. Butter two 9x9 inch baking pans and set aside
2. Place chocolate chips, German chocolate, marshmallow creme and nuts into large mixing bowl. Set aside.
3. In a 4 qt. saucepan, combine sugar, salt, butter and evaporated milk. Stir over low heat until the sugar dissolves. Bring to boil and cook for 6 minutes.
4. Pour boiling syrup over ingredients in the bowl; beat until all chocolate is melted. Pour into prepared pans. Let stand a few hours to set before cutting.

Note: Great for bake exchanges or to put together with other baking or treats for teachers or friends. Keeps well in a covered tin box lined with wax or parchment paper.
