No, this has nothing to do with Russell Stover. This Rocky Road-style fudge is named after Stover Hall in Helaman Halls at BYU, the one-time domain of head resident (and dorm mom) Jean Fossum May, who came up with this recipe. May Hall, a resident hall for women, was later named in her honor.
STOVER FUDGE
12 oz. chocolate chips
1 cup raisins
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cube butter
½ cup (or more) maraschino cherries, drained and chopped
4½ cups white sugar
1 can evaporated milk
1 package miniature marshmallows, frozen (they have to be or they'll melt in the hot fudge)
Butter a cookie sheet. Have ready in a large bowl chocolate, raisins, nuts, butter and cherries. In a saucepan, boil sugar and milk to fudge stage (228 degrees), and pour syrup over contents in bowl. Stir until chocolate and butter are melted and ingredients are mixed well. Add marshmallows. Spread on cookie sheet, cool and cut into squares.
Makes 5 pounds candy. Yes, 5 pounds. Hey, you'd make that much candy too if you had visits from gobs of hungry college kids.
