Steps:

• Line a 9x13 baking dish with foil or parchment paper. This makes it easier to remove the fudge and cut it. This makes a full 9x13 pan of fudge so if you want shorter pieces you could use a bigger pan.
• Place chocolate chips, marshmallow cream, butter, vanilla, and nuts in large bowl. Set aside for later.
• Pour sugar and evaporated milk in a very large pot. You need a larger pot than you think because when the mixture boils is will expand a lot. Bring mixture to a boil and boil briskly over medium high gear for 7 minutes stirring continuously. Remove from heat and pour into the bowl containing the first mixture. Mix until incorporated completely. Work quickly because fudge will start to set up. Pour into prepared pan and refrigerate until set. See notes if it doesn't set up or separates.
• Slice into squares and serve. You can prepare this ahead of time and freeze if desired.

• Place the sugar, evaporated milk, and marshmallows in medium saucepan.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Monitor the temperature using a candy thermometer.

• Pour the hot mixture into the bowl with the butter, chocolate, and vanilla.
• Beat with an electric mixer until the fudge is thick and dull (this doesn't take long).
