Preparation

Step 1

1. Line 12 by 9-inch baking dish with 2 pieces of foil, placed perpendicular to each other, let edges of foil overhang pan.

2. Bring sugar, evaporated milk, and butter to boil in large, heavy-bottomed Dutch oven over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce to simmer and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is light tan in color and registers 234 degrees on instant-read or candy thermometer, 7-12 minutes.

3. Take pan off heat, stir in walnuts, Marshmallow Fluff, and vanilla until uniformly combined. Let mixture cool to 200 degrees, about 7 minutes.

4. Stir in chocolates until smooth. Pour mixture into prepared pan and refrigerate, uncovered, until firm, about 4 hours. Using foil overhang, remove fudge from pan and cut into squares. (Fudge can be refrigerated in airtight container for up to 1 month.)
