1
This makes several pounds of fudge (I think it's around 4) so it's the perfect recipe for the holidays. You can pour it into several smaller pans and make all of your different flavors with one batch. For example, you could divide it into 4 portions and add cookie crumbs to one, peanut butter to one, cherries to one and marshmallows to the last one. It's a great way to knock out alot of fudge at one time.
2
Boil together the sugar, salt, butter and milk. Gently boil for 8 to 10 minutes. Start timing it AFTER it comes to a full gentle boil. (stir it pretty frequently while this is going on).
3
Remove from heat and add the chocolate and all the rest of the ingredients. Stir rapidly with a large spoon until thoroughly blended.
4
Pour into 2 buttered pans (13x9). Cool several hours before cutting into 1 inch squares. Store covered tightly with plastic wrap. I keep mine in the fridge cause I like it cold.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
