Holiday Fudge - Allysa - 12-20-2006
Does anyone have a killer fudge recipe? I'm talking the standard milk chocolate fudge, but something creative. Preferably with swirls or something. Any ideas?
Thanks!

I do one with the standard recipe but I use white chocolate instead and the nuts I use are cashews. If you buy the ones in the can give them a quick rinse to get the salt off.
I also make a batch with milk chocolate and put almonds instead of walnuts. I then make another batch of each and put milk chocolate on the bottom and white on the top. If you want just pull a butter knife thru it the minute you pour it for a swirl affect.

...and then there is this fudge -
Mexican Fudge
1 pound Monterey jack cheese with jalapeno
1 pound cheddar cheese
13 ounces evaporated milk
2 eggs
3 tablespoons flour
Grate cheese and lay in greased 9" x 13" pan. Beat milk, eggs, and flour together, pour over cheeses. Bake 40 minutes at 350 degrees F. Cut into squares or diamonds, serve hot or cold.

Hi -
I've made a lot of fudge over the years working in the Kraft Kitchens. This is a particular favorite of mine.
It is a 2-Layer Fudge - a dark chocolate, walnut-studded fudge layer is topped with snowy, white chocolate fudge for a double-decker treat perfect for gift giving. So it is a little more interesting than just "plain fudge".
And it is really easy. Enjoy!
