Ingredients
1 tablespoon butter
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup whole milk
2 squares (1 ounce each) unsweetened chocolate
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup chopped walnuts, or 1 heaping tablespoon peanut butter (optional)
Instructions

Melt butter in a heavy saucepan. Add sugar, milk, and chocolate, and stir constantly until chocolate is melted. Boil for 13 minutes on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally.

Remove from heat and add vanilla (and walnuts or peanut butter) and beat until creamy. Work quickly. Pour at once into a buttered pan, cool slightly, and mark into squares. 

Optional: Add candy corn on top before you let the fudge completely cool.
