St. George Card Party Fantasy Fudge

Combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk in a large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the mixture reaches a rolling boil.

Maintain the boil for exactly 5 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent scorching on the bottom.

Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the semi-sweet chocolate morsels until completely melted and smooth.

Add the marshmallow creme and vanilla, stirring vigorously until fully incorporated and the mixture is glossy.

Pour the fudge into a buttered 9×13-inch baking pan, spreading it into an even layer with a spatula.

Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours until completely set and firm to the touch.

Cut the cooled fudge into 1-inch squares using a sharp knife, wiping the blade between cuts for clean edges.

Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature, separated by parchment paper between layers.
