Marshmallow Fudge

I know, everybody makes this one. Because it's WONNNNNDERFUL, that's why!

MARSHMALLOW FUDGE
2 ¼ cups sugar
¼ cup butter
1 cup marshmallow creme (or use about the same volume of mini-marshmallows)
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup evaporated milk
16 oz. chocolate chips
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Butter an 8- or 9-inch square pan. In 3-quart saucepan, mix sugar, butter, milk, creme and salt, stirring over medium heat until mixture boils and bubbles. Keep at boiling point for five minutes, stirring constantly to make sure mixture doesn't stick to the pan. Remove from heat and stir in chocolate chips and vanilla until chocolate is thoroughly melted. Stir in nuts, if using. Spread into prepared buttered pan, cool thoroughly and cut into pieces.

Don't add walnuts if you're making these for Julie. They tear up the roof of her mouth.
