Easy Fudge

Posted on by Cindy

This is one of those recipes that I always make at Christmas time. I have to admit I use to make fudge in the past and for some reason it never came out right and I almost given up on making it until I discovered this recipe.
Its super easy and quick. I hope you Enjoy it.
The 5 minute Fudge Recipe:
Ingredients:
1 2/3 cup of sugar
2/3 cup of evaporated milk
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups of mini marshmallows
1 1/2 – 2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla
(You can omit the walnuts if you don’t want them in your fudge. I have made them both ways and they have turned out fine.)
Directions:
-Combine sugar, milk, butter, and salt in a saucepan.
-Stir over med heat until a full boil and then boil for 5 minutes after it comes to full boil.
-Stir constantly.
-Remove from heat
-Stir in marshmallows, vanilla and chocolate chips and walnut if you are using them.
-Stir until marshmallows are melted and blended.
-Pour into a foiled line pan and chill until set.
(I use a the regular square pan)

Virtual Cookie Swap without the calories

Posted on by Cindy

I meant to write up this post earlier but as you can see I took a mini blog vacation. I have to admit that it felt good to be away for a few days but sadly I am still no further ahead.

By now you might have seen the recipes from Kathy at Bermudaonion and Julie at Booking Mama blog that they shared with their readers. It was a Virtual Cookie Swap. They both shared some great cookie recipes. I have tried two of them and looking forward to trying a few others this holiday season.

Today is the last day to post recipes for a chance to win some great prizes. Its to late just go to each of their blogs to find out how to do it.

I will be posting two of my favorite recipes today. Hope you enjoy them.
