Fudge Ingredients:
“
4 ½ cups sugar 1 large can Pet evaporated milk 1 stick plus 1/3 cup butter 16 oz. marshmallow crème
3 small packages chocolate chips (total of 18 oz.) 2 cups chopped pecans 1 teaspoon vanilla
Bring to boil sugar, milk and margarine. Cook for 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Turn burner off. Add chocolate chips, marshmallow crème and vanilla, stirring only enough to mix. Add nuts, stir only enough to mix. Pour into a 13x9-inch pan and let sit overnight before cutting into squares. (I usually line my pan with aluminum foil as it makes cutting the fudge and clean up easier).
I met Buster Dickerson years ago and we became close friends. He was a great supporter of everything we did here at the track, and he was introduced to everyone as the 'World’s Biggest Race Fan.' One year, I was at his Christmas Party and Buster had this fabulous fudge. I probably ate a half-pound that day, and Buster got quite a kick out of it. After that, Buster made it a tradition to always bring me fudge for Christmas. It is so good; I would hide it so I didn’t have to share it. Buster passed away a couple of years ago, but his wife, Ellen, still brings fudge by for everyone at the speedway. It is out of this world. You can’t eat just one piece.” Ed Clark, President and General Manager
