Ingredients

  • 2 cups superfine sugar (see note)
  • 1 (5 ounce) can evaporated milk
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 2 cups miniature marshmallows (I use an 8 oz. jar of marshmallow fluff)
  • 2 (11 1/2 ounce) bags milk chocolate chips (3 1/2 cups total)
  • 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped pecans

Method

  • Butter an 8-by-11-inch baking pan and set aside.
  • In a 2-quart glass bowl, mix the sugar and the evaporated milk.
  • Microwave on high, uncovered, for 3 minutes.
  • Remove from the microwave oven and stir.
  • Microwave an additional 2 minutes, watching closely so that the mixture doesn't boil over.
  • Meanwhile, cut the butter into four pieces and set aside.
  • Remove the sugar mixture from the microwave and stir in the butter and marshmallows until both are melted.
  • Add the chocolate chips, vanilla and nuts, and mix well.
  • Spread into the buttered pan and chill for at least an hour, or until firm.
  • Cut into small (1-inch) squares and store in tins or plastic storage bags in the refrigerator for up to five days.
