Directions with candy thermometer:

Coat baking dish with oil or parchment paper. In heavy saucepan, mix butter, condensed milk, marshmallow, sugar and salt over medium heat. Stir constantly, using a wooden or rubber spoon. Bring to a boil. When the temperature reaches about 236-238 degrees F/113-114 degrees C, remove from heat. Add ¼ cup butter and 1/2 cup chocolate morsels, do not stir. (Stirring after the fudge reaches the correct temperature can create gritty fudge.) Let cool to at least 110 degrees F/40 degrees C then mix in 1 tsp vanilla, add nuts if desired.
