Goat Milk Fudge

15 oz of Hersheys Bar (use multiples and parts of different size bars to make up approximately 15 oz.)

4 cups of miniature marshmallows (can also use 7-oz of marshmallow crème)

1 package of chocolate chips (12 oz)

1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Place these above ingredients in a very large mixing bowl.

4 ½ cups sugar

1 ½ cups goat milk

½ cube (1/4 cup) butter or margarine

1 tsp. vanilla

Place sugar, goat milk and butter in a sauce pan and heat on the stove. Bring to a boil stirring constantly as it scorches easily. If you have a large heatproof silicone spatula this is a great tool for this job. It makes a “dandy candy paddle.” Boil at a hard boil for 5 minutes and continue stirring. Add vanilla. Pour over the chocolate and marshmallows in the bowl. You can pre-melt the chocolate and marshmallows in the microwave for a minute or two. Continue to stir the entire mixture until everything is melted and blended. Then pour into a large buttered baking pan (bun pan, 11 ½ X 16 inches). Cool. Cut into serving pieces and enjoy.
