Boil, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.STIR in marshmallows, morsels, nuts and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until marshmallows are melted. Pour into prepared baking pan; refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Lift from pan; remove foil. Cut into 48 pieces.

FOR MILK CHOCOLATE FUDGE:SUBSTITUTE 1 3/4 cups (11.5-oz. pkg.) NESTLE® TOLL HOUSE® Milk Chocolate Morsels for Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels. FOR BUTTERSCOTCH FUDGE:SUBSTITUTE 1 2/3 cups (11-oz. pkg.)

** I make 2 batches of this, in the first one I substitute peanut butter chips for the chocolate chips and pour it into a pan, then I make the second batch the regular way and pour it on top of the peanut butter one. this is the closest I have come to the fantastic fudge at Gardner Village.
