There's Always Room For Fudge

Friday, May 29, 2015

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.

4 C sugar

1 can — (tall) Carnation evaporated milk

¼ lb. butter or margarine

½ tsp salt

2 pkgs (6oz) Nestlés chocolate chips

2 — (8oz) Hershey bars broken into pieces

1 — (8oz) jar Marshmallow Cream Blend

1 cup (or more if desired) nuts — optional

Mix sugar, milk, butter or margarine, and salt. Heat to boiling.

Cook five minutes, stirring constantly.

Place chocolate chips and chocolate bar pieces in a large bowl or sauce pan; pour hot mixture over chocolate. Stir until all chocolate is melted and blended.

Add Marshmallow Crème and mix well.

Add nuts if desired. Mix thoroughly.

Pour into buttered pan to cool and then cut into squares.

Refrigerate wrapped in foil to keep fresh.

Chocolate Cherry Brownie Cake

Pam well remembers this recipe. There was going to be a bake sale — something about the youth group Pam was in, and Mom helped her bake this two layer cake. Well, Pam was running late and didn’t have time for the cake to cool as long as it should have, so chocolate chips were still soft when she frosted it. Later that week, the person who purchased the cake at the sale came up to Mom to say how clever Pam had been to put a layer of chocolate in the middle of the cake; Mom just let the compliment ride.

1 pkg of chocolate pudding mix (not instant)

1 box of Chocolate Cherry Cake Mix

1 C maraschino cherries

1 C nuts, chopped

1 pkg Nestlés chocolate chips

Whipped cream or frosting

Cook pudding as directed on package. Let cool.

Mix in cake mix, cherries, and nuts.

Put in prepared cake pan(s) and sprinkle with chips.

Bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Frost or serve with whipped cream.
