It's all everyone's talking about (A Blog A Day #3)

I saw this fudge recipe floating around on several blogs that I follow in December.  First Dana featured it on MADE, then V and Co. (who actually had guest posted it on MADE) blogged it, then Kristina whipped it up on Sir Bubbadoo.  With all this buzz, how could I go wrong.  I only had chocolate chips and toffee pieces at home, so I went with 24 oz. of semi-sweet and one can of condensed milk for plain chocolate fudge, and stirred some toffee chips into half of it for a little Heath bar twist.  I made this on my lunch hour, and had time for it to set up and get cut and wrapped up to take back to work for the afternoon.  Seriously, that's how easy this stuff is.


I decided I needed to make this for my family for Christmas (much easier than the decorated sugar cookies I was planning on bringing as my "dish to share").  So, the day before Christmas Eve, I tried two versions, and wrapped them up for my mom's family's Christmas Eve celebration.  This tray of half Andes mint flavored fudge, and half Reese's peanut butter fudge traveled to Michigan, and was gobbled up by my family.


This recipe is a keeper, for sure.  My family definitely preferred the mint version, but maybe I will try out a few kinds next time.  Walnuts, plain chocolate, butterscotch, the possibilities are practically endless!
