Something tells me this is not a recipe that Mamie Eisenhower shared at church. It’s likely from a magazine or newspaper. It sounds like Rocky Road fudge to me.
Mamie Eisenhower’s Fudge
4 1/2 c sugar
pinch salt
2 tbsp butter
1 tall can Evap milk
Put in a medium aluminum pan and bring to a boil on medium fire. Stir as needed. Boil 7 minutes.
Have ready in bowl:
1 pt marshmallow fluff (1 can)
5 or 6 marshmallows
2 pkgs chocolate chips
2 bars German sweet chocolate
2 c nuts or 1 can
Pour boiling syrup onto stuff in bowl. Mix well. Put into a big pan. Cut – refrigerate. Keeps well.
When I was little and saw this it didn’t cross my mind that Mamie was the wife of a President. I did figure that out later.

I think that Mamie must have been some kind of a cook – or her personal chef, or White House chef was the cooker cooking for Mamie. I have a recipe for a chicken casserole that is attributed to Mamie.
