Butter sides of a heavy large saucepan. Combine sugar, cream of coconut, evaporated milk, corn syrup, butter, and salt. Stirring constantly, cook over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Using a pastry brush dipped in hot water, wash down any sugar crystals on sides of pan. Attach a candy thermometer to pan, making sure thermometer does not touch bottom of pan.

Increase heat to medium and bring to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until mixture reaches soft-ball stage (approximately 234° to 240°). Test about 1/2 teaspoon mixture in ice water. Mixture will easily form a ball in ice water but will fl atten when removed from water. Place
pan in 2 inches of cold water in sink. Add vanilla; do not stir. Cool to approximately 110°. Remove from sink. Stir in chocolate chips. Using medium speed of an electric mixer, beat until fudge thickens and begins to lose its gloss. Pour into prepared pan. Chill 1 hour or until firm.
Use ends of foil to lift fudge from pan. Cut into 1-inch squares. Store in refrigerator.
