1

Prepare an 8x11 baking pan by buttering it with a cold stick of butter, rubbing it on the bottom and sides until covered.

2

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, evaporated milk, and butter.

3

Stir the mixture continuously until it comes to a full rolling boil.

4

Once boiling, set a timer for 5 minutes and continue stirring without stopping.

5

After 5 minutes, check the color; it should turn a yellow or caramel color, indicating it's ready.

6

Remove from heat and quickly stir in the semisweet chocolate, marshmallow cream, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

7

Make sure to stir vigorously to avoid scorching the chocolate and to incorporate air into the fudge.

8

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, ensuring it's at least an inch thick.

9

Let the fudge cool to room temperature before cutting it into squares.
