(This was my grandmother's recipe. My mother's made it every Christmas [and only for Christmas] of my life, except one.)
4½ C. sugar
1 large can evaporated milk
12 oz. chocolate chips
12 oz. Hershey bar, broken up
1 pint marshmallow creme
½ stick butter
Pinch salt
2 tsp. vanilla
1 C. walnuts (optional)
In a large saucepan, boil sugar and canned milk together for five minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
Add remaining ingredients. Stir together until smooth. Pour into a greased pan. Cool to room temperature. Cut into squares. Refrigerate.
Note: If desired, a Hershey bar with almonds may be used. Don't substitute for any of the other ingredients. Use real vanilla, real butter, the expensive chocolate chips -- the works. It's worth it.
