Mamie Eisenhower'S Favorite Million Dollar Fudge - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 pinch salt
1 2/3 cups evaporated milk (one 12 ounce can)
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups semisweet chocolate pieces
3 (4 ounce) semi-sweet chocolate baking squares
1 pint marshmallow creme (two 7 ounce jars)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups chopped pecans

Preparation

In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, salt, milk, and butter. Bring to a vigorous boil, stirring often; then reduce heat and simmer 6 minutes, stirring continuously.
Meanwhile, place the chocolate, Marshmallow Creme and vanilla into a large bowl. Gradually pour boiling syrup over the chocolate-marshmallow mixture and beat until chocolate is melted. Stir in nuts.
Pour into a buttered pan ( I used a buttered 11 x 16-inch jellyroll pan) and store in a cool place several hours to harden before cutting into 1-inch squares.
Store in a covered tin; keeps up to 6 months in a cool place.
