  • Put the sugar, cream, chocolate, honey, and salt in a large pot and stir with a spoon until the ingredients are combined.
  • Stirring suddenly and very carefully, wait for the mixture to boil over medium heat for about 7 to 12 minutes.
  • Cover the pot and let steam build inside for 2 minutes.
  • Place the candy thermometer in the pot, being careful that it touches the bottom of the pot.
  • Let it boil until it reaches 113-114 degrees, between 2 and 5 minutes.
  • When it reaches that temperature, remove the pot from the heat and add the butter (DO NOT STIR).
  • Let the temperature of the mixture drop to 43 degrees, about 1 hour or 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, line a deep square container with aluminum foil (overhanging the sides).
  • Butter the aluminum foil and set aside the baking tray.
  • Using a hand mixer, beat the chocolate fudge until the color is lighter and it thickens, about 10-20 minutes.
  • Add 2 1/4 cups of the shredded coconut.
  • Place the fudge on top of the prepared container and flatten with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle with the remaining shredded coconut and chopped nuts.
  • Let the fudge cool for 1 night.
