This fudge is usually a Fall treat, right around Halloween.
My Mother would make this every year, and the entire tray of fudge would disappear quickly.
Melt in your mouth, a sweet treat that you’ll remember your whole life through.

Hey there mauniejames3:
Thanks for the compliment! It is wonderful…
Even if you don’t really want fudge, or if someone says they don’t like fudge, they’ll ALL be fighting over this…
I love to give away food as gifts! Love that! I will be posting some great ideas before Christmas for sure…
This fudge is a GREAT one…Plus, I will be adding some brittle and bark recipes that are sure to please!
However, one of my faves to give for presents, since everyone’s crazy about their dogs, and they’re soooo easy to make, is homemade doggy biscuits: http://CookingWithKimberly.com/?p=309
I often will make Christmas cookies and give those away. Of course, Christmas cakes/fruit cakes are a great fave to give as gifts. I’ve even made flavored vinegars and oils in beautiful bottles.
You can combine or layer the dry ingredients to your favorite cookie recipe, cake recipe, bread recipe, bread machine recipe or muffin recipe in a large mason jar…Attached, on a card, you tell them the directions and what wet ingredients to add…I love this!
We make our own wine, so this is always a great gift…
Also, one of today’s biggest trends is to make beauty products for people made out of food or food products…I’ll be giving some great recipes for that too!
Hope that inspires you! If you have any requests in particular, let me know by posting a comment to: Desperate for a Thanksgiving Recipe – http://CookingWithKimberly.com/?p=813 (even if it’s not a Thanksgiving recipe, I’ll still get the message!!!)
