Buckeye Fudge

I have never had success with fudge until trying this recipe. It turned out so creamy and, well just perfect. I got rave reviews by everyone that has tried a piece. I would suggest using a candy thermometer just to eliminate any doubt on when it is ready to take off the stove. I did a slight varation on it - First of all I doubled the recipe and left out the walnuts. I also used 1/3 milk chocolate chips and 2/3 semi-sweet (my personal preference). After I poured it into two pans I topped one pan with crushed candy canes and the other with walnut halves.

Both versions went over really well but people seemed to really like the one with the candy cane on top. Very festive looking too. The only suggestion I have is to give a approximate time needed to beat the mixture. I wasn't totally sure if the gloss was gone but I had been beating for about five minutes (in a KitchenAid mixer) and was afraid of over doing it. It would have been nice to have a general guideline. I'm already planning on making it again next time to give away as gifts.



Well, I wish I would of had the walnuts, since I had everything else, I didn't bother to run to the store for them. They would of been great. The fudge is still really good!!!! If you use the mini marshmallows just use like 2 cups worth...turned our wonderful!!!
