GRANDDAD'S PEPPERMINT FUDGE

Steps:

• Put chocolate chips and marshmallow creme in a large mixing bowl with margarine.
• Combine sugar and evaporated milk in a large pot over medium-low heat. Stir constantly and bring to a rolling boil. Reduce heat to low.

A small amount of syrup dropped into cold water should form a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.

• Line a 9x13-inch rimmed baking sheet with waxed paper. Pour in fudge mixture and cool in the refrigerator until completely set, about 2 hours.
