Grandma strait's fudge

"This was my Grandmother's recipe for fudge that she sold in her candy shop. It is the best fudge I have had and it is very easy to make. If pecans aren't your forte, substitute walnuts or almonds! Original recipe yield: 1 pound."

Main Ingredients:

4 cups white sugar
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup butter

1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme
3/4 cup chopped pecans

Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan combine sugar, condensed milk, butter and chocolate chips. Heat to between 234 and 240 degrees F (112 to 116 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed on a flat surface.
Remove chocolate mixture from heat and add marshmallow and nuts. Pour the fudge into the prepared pan, and let set.
