Key Lime Fudge by falalala

1 8-ounce can of evaporated milk
1 2/3 cups sugar
½ tsp. salt
12 large marshmallows
2 cups white chocolate chips
1/8 cup grated lime rind
2 Tblsp. Key lime juice (try Nellie & Joe’s famous Key Lime Juice)

Line an 8”x8” square pan with aluminum foil; grease foil with butter.

Combine the first three ingredients (through salt) in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil; boil 8 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove pan from heat. Add the marshmallows and remaining three ingredients to the milk mixture, and stir until the marshmallows are melted and the mixture is smooth. Pour fudge into the prepared pan. Cool completely in the refrigerator. Cut into small (or large!) squares, and enjoy.

Had I thought of it in time I would have put a graham cracker crust at the bottom of it. I just sampled the stuff and it's not bad...I'm making a bunch of different things to wrap up on pretty plates with cellophane to bring over to the neighbors and to parties, and this looks to be a decent addition. (If you do make it, make sure to keep stirring the stuff...if if don't watch out it burns quickly and then you get little charred bits mixed in which doesn't look at all appealing.)
