Instructions:
Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper or lightly grease it.

Melt Butter and Sugar: In a medium saucepan, bring the butter to melting point over a flame. Once done, add in the sugar, sweetened condensed milk, and evaporated milk before stirring in a clockwise direction so nothing sticks to the bottom.

Cook the Fudge: Raise the heat until the mixture boils gently and cook until the mixture reaches the soft-ball stage (Approximately 234°F or 112°C). This should take about 10-15 minutes thanks to the candy thermometer.

Add Vanilla and Nuts: Take the mixture off the heat, and once it has cooled down a little, add the vanilla and nuts to it (if using).

Wait for the mixture to settle in the prepared pan before leveling its top with a spatula.

Let it sit out on a counter for 2 hours or place it in a fridge for a much faster time span.

Cut Into Squares: Fudge can be served well after it has been removed from the freezer and cooled down. Once the connections have been formed, cut the fudges into pieces that are square in shape.

Hints for Success:
In order to properly create a soft and pliable fudge, use a candy thermometer to ensure a soft-ball stage is successfully reached. This is very critical for perfect texture.

It is best to stir continuously to prevent the sugar from forming crystals or from sticking to the base of the pan.

For an optimal surface sheen, it is advisable to refrain from handling the fudge while it is hardening in order to avert fingerprints and or indentations.

Health Benefits: Fudge is mostly made of sugar, fat, and sugar. It is ideal for quick energy, and a warm serves to give a tasty treat. All in all, nuts effectively contribute healthy oil and proteins making the sweet treat a little more healthy.
