Melt 1.5 sticks of butter in a saucepan.

Stir in 3 cups of sugar continuously to prevent burning.

Set the heat to medium to medium-high, ensuring it doesn't burn or stay too low.

Once the mixture starts to bubble, set a timer for five minutes.

Insert a candy thermometer and monitor the temperature, aiming for 237 to 239 degrees Fahrenheit.

Once it reaches the desired temperature, cook for an additional minute before removing from heat.

Add a 12-ounce bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips and stir until melted and combined.

Add an entire jar of Marshmallow Fluff and mix thoroughly until fully incorporated.

Spread the mixture into a baking dish and refrigerate for about three hours until solid.
