This is Grandma:
And this is her fudge:
It is the best fudge you’ll ever taste. Promise. Its rich, its delicious. . . and its fat free! Okay, so its really not fat free. I lied. But its so good, you won’t care.
Every year at Christmas time we make this fudge with grandma. This year we made three batches. . . or the equivalent of six 9×13″ foil pans full!
That’s more than 13 cups of sugar. . . 18 cups of chocolate chips. . . 2 lbs of butter. . . You get the point.
Grandma’s Fudge
4 1/2 C. Sugar
1 can evaporated milk
3/4 C. butter (grandma used 1 1/2 c. this year)
35 large marshmallows
1 large chocolate bar (5-8oz size)
3 pkg. (6 cups) of chocolate chips
Nuts (optional)Instructions:
- Combine sugar, milk, butter, and marshmallows in a large pot and stir continuously on medium heat. Bring to a boil.
- Boil for 5 minutes.
- Break the chocolate bar into smaller chunks and stir in, until melted.
- Fold in chocolate chips until melted
- Stir in nuts if desired.
- Pour into greased pans (2 – 9×13″ or 3 – 8×8″) and allow to cool
Note: If desired, fudge can be cut into squares, wrapped in foil, and frozen for later.
Grandma’s fudge is yummy stuff. Make it. Eat it. Love it. Go to the gym!
