Now it isn’t to say that these aren’t delicious sweet treats, it’s just that after you’ve made as many batches as I have that you’ve had to give away after your first chunk as the texture is all wrong for you, then you’ll see why the pedant in me emerges and I become rather fussy! Problem is, the word “fudge” has been sullied and now is awarded to confections which include microwaving chocolate and condensed milk together then leaving it to set, or doing the same in the slow cooker or adding a few extra bits like butter and more sugar on the hob. If you have ever Googled or rooted around Pinterest looking at glorious images of fudge of every possible flavour, with additions such as chocolate, crumbled cookies, marshmallows, fruit, nuts you name it, the combinations have been well documented. Fatal mistake, there is no such thing as onlyone more chunk of fudge… I want my fudge to melt in the mouth like butter, but have more substance – it should be creamy, rich and make you groan with pleasure as you eat just one more chunk. Problem is, if flaky, crumbly textures make your teeth itch like mine, then you are going to be disappointed in the extreme! There are plenty of recipes out there for tablet and many, many lovers of the stuff but for me, the perfect fudge is soft and luscious, without a grain in sight. Tablet is a Scottish confection which uses double the quantity of sugar that fudge does but otherwise, the method is often very similar. I’m sure I’m not the only one to have made that mistake when searching for the magic method to deliver creamy fudginess so let me explain. One thing to be clear about from the start is this is fudge, not tablet. It’s taken a lot of time and a lot of flaky, grainy, unpalatable batches of supposed fudge to find the winning recipe. I’m guessing I’ll have the whole batch devoured before I can even think about plating it.Proper, traditional, soft & creamy real vanilla fudge. I don’t see this making it to any parties though. It’s mighty tasty and will be a perfect treat this Christmas. It’s so good!!! And this fudge recipe doesn’t disappoint. Sometimes I’ll walk in there and pretend like I’m going to buy something just to get a chocolate sample. And not just any kind of fudge…See’s Candy Fudge. So I decided to go ahead and share a recipe for fudge today. I can’t help myself! It’s the creamy deliciousness that I can’t get enough of.

My wonderful aunt Trina always brings a plate full of various homemade fudge to our family Christmas party and I’m normally the one sampling each flavor. It’s my favorite treat to eat during the holidays and I love sampling all different kinds. When I think of Christmas food I think of fudge. Maybe it’s the fact that September is just a week away or that Pinterest is crawling with Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas ideas…but MAN, I am spazzing out for the holidays! And today’s post is total proof of that.

Fall is my favorite time of year and my twin sister and I always say that the holidays officially arrive on October 18th (our birthday). Lately, out of nowhere I’ve become super excited for the holidays to arrive. You all going to think I’ve totally lost it.
