I made fudge the other day. I did it because I had company
for dinner and my son does love sweets, just like his momma.
The amazing thing about this fudge is that I have yet to
screw it up. Every time I’ve made it, it has come out delicious, smooth,
creamy… um… hang on a second. I’ll be right back.
Gods, that was good…
Anyway, here is my post for the day. I call it:
1, 2, 3, FUDGE!
1 stick of butter. Use it to grease the inside of an 8x8
cake pan, then use it to grease the inside of a 3 quart sauce pan. Drop it in
the sauce pan, turn on the heat to somewhere between medium and high. As soon
as it is melted pour in
1 bag of mini marshmallows. When they are almost completely
melted, pour in
1 bag of chocolate chips. Or butterscotch chips. Or white
chocolate chips… you get the picture.
When it is melted and smooth, remove from heat and pour into
the buttered cake pan. Stick it in the fridge for at least an hour.
When it is cold, it is very chewy, almost like a caramel. If
you leave it out at room temperature, it is creamy and sticky.
I’m planning on playing with it a bit, you know, adding a
few extra things to it on occasion: cinnamon, dried fruit, nuts… I’m even
thinking of tossing in some crisp rice because, well, yum. By the way, the
extra ingredients don’t add to the name, it’s still just 1, 2, 3, Fudge!
Ok, technically, it’s 1, 1, 1, fudge, but really?
REALLY?
