Introduction

I make this every single Christmas, and if I don’t make it in the dead of the night and hide it, it simply does not survive. Seriously — it disappears before it ever leaves the house. This is one of those legendary family recipes that everyone waits for all year long, and once you taste it… you’ll understand why self-control goes out the window.

🕰️ A Little History

Holiday treats like this were meant to be shared, gifted, and sneaked from the kitchen when no one was looking. For generations, families have made rich, sweet confections during Christmas because they brought joy, comfort, and celebration. This recipe has that same magic — simple ingredients, big memories, and a taste that never gets old.

🧾 Ingredients

3 cups sugar
3/4 cup butter
2/3 cup evaporated milk
1 bag (12 oz) chocolate chips 🍫
1 cup marshmallow fluff
1 tsp vanilla extract
Optional: chopped nuts

Simple pantry ingredients, holiday magic results.

🔪 Preparation

Line a square pan with parchment paper.
Measure all ingredients before starting — timing matters.
Have a spoon ready… but try not to eat it all immediately 😄

🥣 Instructions

In a saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and evaporated milk.
Bring to a rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Boil for 4–5 minutes, continuing to stir.

Mix until smooth and glossy.
Pour into prepared pan and smooth the top.
Let set completely before cutting.

If you can wait that long 😉
