4 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup butter
12 ounces evaporated milk
4 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows

In large saucepan, combine sugar, butter and
evaporated milk; cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is
dissolved. Bring to a full boil,
stirring constantly. Boil 5 minutes over medium heat without
stirring.
Remove saucepan from heat. Add marshmallows, chocolate chips, sweet
chocolate and
unsweetened chocolate, stirring constantly until all chocolate is
melted and mixture is smooth.
