Wonder Fudge and a Wreath
Alternate title, "Put on your drool bib" After my Epic fail whine fest yesterday I thought it would be nice if I shared a couple things I did get marked off of my goody list. First up, Fudge!


This...

plus this(after 7minutes of boiling)makes this...
which then gets spread into pans, like this...which gets chilled, then cut into pieces, which makes wonder fudge ready to give away and eat, like this...
So yummy, yummy!

********Edited to add recipe for Mouthwatering Monday****************

I got this recipe from a friend of mine, not sure if this was hers or passed down from someone in her family. There is only one size jar of Marshmallow fluff and if they used to make 13 oz cans of evaporated milk they don't anymore it's 12 oz. Please use at least a 4qt. saucepan, the sugar and milk bubble up something fierce! Oh, and you might want to do some strength training on your stirring arm to build up the muscles needed to stir this concoction and then to cut it up! Enjoy! Let me know how it turns out!

Wonder Fudge

4 – 12 oz pkgs. Semi-sweet chocolate chips

8 or 13 oz. Marshmallow crème

3 cups chopped nuts

½ lb. Melted margarine

2 tsps. Pure vanilla extract

4 cups sugar

1 – 13 oz. Evaporated milk

In a large bowl, mix together the chocolate chips, marshmallow crème, nuts, margarine and vanilla. Set aside.

In a 4-qt. Heavy saucepan, mix sugar and evaporated milk. Stir constantly to prevent scorching. Bring sugar and milk to a full boil. Cook on high heat for seven (7) minutes. The mixture must be cooked for a full seven minutes, no less and no more.

Pour this hot mixture over the first mixture of chocolate, nuts and crème. Blend thoroughly until all of the chocolate chips are melted.

Pour into buttered pans and chill. Cut into cubes. Yields approximately 5 lbs. of YUM!

Do not double this recipe. If you want more, make it twice.

It can be made without nuts.



I only have the finished picture of my Holiday Wreath, which at the moment is over half gone!
It turned out to be a very Grinch-y green.

Today was my Grandma P's Birthday. She loved baking and all things sweet. She never stopped baking after she was diagnosed with Diabetes. I don't think it stopped her from taste testing it either! Happy Birthday Grandma. I love you and miss you.

    You know the new rule don't you?
    If you post the photo of what goody you baked , you have to post it twice. The 2nd time in a box to my home address.

    ps. missing your grandma is the best way to honor her.

    The fudge looks good!

    I love your g-ma's hair - my mom wore her hair like that for years (even after it was out of style).
