Ingredients:
- 8 tablespoons butter (at room temperature and sliced)
- 12 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips (Mom recs Ghirardelli)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup evaporated milk
- 15 regular sized marshmallows (make sure they're fresh)
- 3/4 cup pecans (roughly chopped)

- In a large mixing bowl, add the room temperature butter, chocolate chips, and vanilla. Save the butter wrapper to thinly butter a 7x11-inch baking dish then snugly fit with a piece of parchment paper, allowing enough parchment to fall over the long sides of the pan, like a sling, and set aside.
- In a non-stick electric fry pan, stir together the sugar and the evaporated milk until smooth. Add the marshmallows and set the fry pan to 250°F.
- Cook and stir constantly with a rubber spatula, cleaning the sides of the pan as the marshmallows begin to melt. Once the marshmallows have melted, continue to cook and stir until the sugar has melted and the mixture turns a tawny tan, about 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and pour the hot mixture over the butter and chocolate chips in the bowl. Working quickly, use a wooden spoon to stir the butter and chocolate until they melt and combine. Add the nuts, then vigorously stir the mixture until glossy, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the chocolate mixture to the baking dish and smooth the top with an angled offset spatula. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours or overnight.
- To serve, let the fudge sit for 1-2 minutes after removing from the fridge and use the parchment paper to lift the fudge from the pan to a cutting board. Cut, and serve.

- Prepare the baking pan: Lightly spray an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with cooking oil. Line with parchment paper.
- Warm the milk and marshmallows: Place the milk and the marshmallows in medium pan. Turn the heat to medium low and gently heat the milk. Stir constantly until the marshmallows have melted. If the milk starts to foam up too much, reduce the heat.
- Stir in the sugars, followed by the remaining ingredients: Once the marshmallows have melted, add both sugars and continue to cook on medium low heat while stirring until the sugars have dissolved and the liquid is smooth. Add the vanilla, salt, and peanut butter. Stir until smooth and incorporated into the batter.
- Pour the hot fudge into the prepared pan: Once the fudge batter is smooth and uniform, immediately pour it into the prepared pan and smooth out with spatula or butter knife.
- Cool overnight: Let the fudge cool to room temperature in the pan, then chill in the fridge overnight.
- Cut the fudge: The next day, lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 1-inch squares. Store in an airtight container. The fudge keeps for about a week at room temperature or 2 to 3 weeks refrigerated.
