There's always room for fudge!

Five Minute Fudge

This was our official Christmas Fudge. There may have been others, but they were never rated up     with this one. Oh, and Daddy never did any candy making EXCEPT for helping with this one. Mom would always call him in as she neared the end and could no longer stir it. He’d take over and finish the blending of ingredients. 
Then, she’d take over, again, and spread the candy into pans, let set,then cut into pieces. She made it with and without nuts; since Dad had problems eating nuts, Mom always make some plain.
