Sees Fudge - The Best Recipe


If you want a good fudge, stop wasting your time trying those recipes that only fill an 8x8 pan! Its never enough! This recipe is the closest recipe to the famous See's Candy Fudge and it makes five pounds of fudge! It lasts forever in the fridge

Ingredients
•18 ounces of semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate chips (1 1/2 bags)
•3 cups chopped walnuts or pecans
•(I have used "cocktail-style" peanuts and its good if you want a peanut flavor.)
•1 cup of regular butter (2 sticks) Do not use margarine!
•1 can (13 ounces) evaporated milk
•4 cups of mini marshmallows or 20 large marshmallows, cut up
•4 cups granulated sugar (no substitutes!)
•2 teas. vanilla extract
•**All of your ingredients should be a room temperature!

Directions
1.Put your marshmallows, chips, butter and vanilla in a large bowl.
2.In a heavy pot, add the sugar and milk and bring to a boil over a medium flame.
3.Bring this to a rolling boil and cook for exactly eight (8) minutes
4.Pour the milk and sugar over the marshmallows, chips, butter and vanilla and let it all sit for a minute.
5.Start stirring with a wooden spoon until the marshmallows have melted and add the nuts and stir until the fudge is smooth.
6.Pour into a 9x13 pan or a 15x13 sheet pan. (I use a 9x13 disposable aluminium pan.)
7.Cover your pan with aluminum foil. (You do not have to butter your pan before pouring your fudge into it. )
8.Let fudge rest and cure overnight or for at least several hours until firm to the touch.
9.*You can add more or less nuts as per your preference.
10.*I have added items like M&M's during the holidays, pretzel pieces, used cashews (which was interesting!), toasted coconut, and even bits of vanilla wafers. The fudge without the nuts is excellent as well! You can even roll it into small balls and then roll it in chopped nuts for Fudge Truffles. You can add more mini-marshmallows AFTER you've mixed the fudge together for a Rocky Road Fudge.
11.*This fudge is very soft before it sets as is MOST fudge. After you mix it that you can use a character cake pan and fill that with the fudge but if you do, spray the pan first with an anti-stick spray of some kind. (Bunny-shaped fudge for Easter, Santa-shaped or Xmas tree-shaped fudge)
12.*You can pour this into several small aluminum loaf pans for gift baskets or in round decorated tins for the holidays.
13.**See's Candy is now at $15.00 a pound!
14.Serving suggestion: This fudge is best when served at room temperature.

I appreciate your reply, however, if you look at my recipe request you will see that my request was for Vanilla Nut Fudge, not See's Candy chocolate fudge... Are you suggesting to use this same recipe, but not use chocolate chips, and use Vanilla Chips instead? I'm a bit confused since your answer is not congruent to my question... Please clarify...

Thanks

This is supposed to be the actual recipe from Sees Candy Co.
This recipe was given to my mother in the 1940's. I am telling you this so you will understand why the ingredients are measured the way they are.
SEES FUDGE

10 marshmallows cut up (or 100 tiny size)
2 cups sugar
1 6 oz canned milk
Put in frying pan over low heat. (I like to use cast iron) Stir constantly. Boil exactly 6 minutes after it starts to boil.

In bowl (before you cook the first mixture) place 1/4 lb butter or margarine, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 1 cup chopped nuts and 1 pkg. chocolate chips (this had to be 6 oz as that was what was available in the 40's. It is what I use)

Pour first mixture over mixture in bowl. Stir for one minute. Put in pan and cool for 2 hours, then slice.

I used to make this all the time when I made a lot of candies, and it tastes just like Sees. It is very smooth and creamy. Many of the later copycat recipes use the marshmallow cream, but this has a little smoother texture.
