Oh Fudge!!


Well.. you may not know this... but i have a love-hate relationship with fudge. I have fun memories of my dad making homemade fudge, standing at the stove and stirring and stirring... cooking the most delish fudge... then my sister, Cheryl - nowmakes the best fudge! especially the peanut butter fudge, its the best i have ever had!~ When i was a teen, I was constantly trying to make the best "Penuche" Fudge.. i had a recipe... Penuche fudge is like a maple flavored fudge.. its my fav!! but it is HARD to make... it just never sets right... so i tried and tried as a teen to make the perfect penuche fudge.. it was my favorite and a favorite of a lady who important to me. June Rogers, the pastors wife @ the church were I grew up - she also shared my love for penuche fudge.. well - i never have mastered it, so now i just buy it!

Now - my mother in law makes the best chocolate fudge... every Christmas she sends me a tub and i devour it! its heaven! So i have never tried to make fudge since I was in my 20's.... it seemd to much effort... and why, when my mother in law and my sister do such a fabulous job! - and well if i make, it will eat it.. hahah ALL of it!


so - i made chocolate fudge today! from scratch.. gluten and dairy free! and I have to say, it came out great - surprised myself.. it was easy to make... and now i have to give some of it away - so i don't eat the entire pan!
