on the third day of Christmas...
For the third day I am sharing my favorite fudge recipe (some of you have seen this before, but I am posting again) My mom used to make this at Christmas time for me and my brother when we were kids and now I make it for my kids... except I use the microwave version because it is sooo much easier. *G* This is seriously the easiest recipe for fudge, but for some reason I only make it during the holidays... somehow I think it just tastes better (or maybe its just more nostalgic) that way.
Here is the recipe if anyone wants it...
MICROWAVE FANTASY FUDGE
3/4 c. butter
3 c. sugar
1 (5 fluid oz.) evaporated milk
1 (12 oz.) pkg. semi-sweet chocolate pieces
1 (7 oz.) jar marshmallow creme
1 tsp. vanilla
crushed candy cane (optional, but highly recommended ;)
Microwave butter in 4 quart bowl on high 1 minute or until melted. Add sugar and milk. Mix well.
Microwave on high 10 minutes, stirring after each 2 minutes.
Stir in chocolate pieces until melted. Add marshmallow creme, vanilla and crushed candy cane. Mix well. Pour into buttered 9x13 inch pan. Cool at room temperature. Cut into squares. Makes 3 pounds.
