4 1/2 cups sugar 2 Tbsp butter
1 pinch salt
1 can evaporated milk
12 oz semisweet chocolate bits
12 oz German sweet chocolate
1 pint marshmallow cream
2 cups chopped nuts

Heat the sugar, butter, salt, and evaporated milk over low heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a low boil and boil for six minutes. Put chocolate bits, German chocolate, marshmallow cream, and nuts in a bowl. Pour the boiling syrup over the ingredients. Beat until the chocolate is melted, then pour in a pan. Let stand for a few hours before cutting. It is better the second day. Store in a tin box.
Note: “Mamie’s Million Dollar Fudge” was a favorite of American housewives after her recipe was printed in publications all over the country. It became a staple at the conclusion of formal White House meals.
