MY MOM'S FUDGE

Steps:

• Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and boil for five minutes.
• Remove the mixture from the heat and whisk in the chocolate chips until melted.
• Whisk in the marshmallow fluff and vanilla extract.
• Pour the mixture into a 9x9 baking dish that has been lined with aluminum foil and sprayed with cooking spray.
• Let sit for several hours in the fridge before slicing to serve.
• Enjoy!

MOTHER'S FUDGE

Steps:

• Butter an 8 x 8-inch pan. Combine sugar, butter, milk, salt, and chocolate in medium saucepan. Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until all ingredients melt and come to a boil. Do not scrape down the sides of the pan. Lower heat, insert candy thermometer, and let boil slowly without stirring for about 10 minutes or until soft ball forms when dropped in a cup of cold water (238 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Remove pan from heat and cool. Add vanilla. Beat steadily until fudge loses its gloss. Add nuts. Pour into pan. Cool for 20 minutes and cut into squares. Store in airtight container or wrap in tinfoil.

FUDGIES

Steps:

• Bring the sugar, chocolate, milk, butter, and salt to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan, stirring frequently. Let the mixture boil for 2 minutes; take the saucepan off the heat.
• Stir in the peanut butter, oats, and vanilla. "Mix swiftly but well," Cindy says. Drop from a teaspoon onto waxed paper. Let the Fudgies set for at least 1/2 hour before anyone touches them.

FUDGIES III

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets. Sift together the flour, cocoa, baking soda and salt; set aside.
• In a large bowl, cream together the shortening and sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg, buttermilk, molasses and vanilla one at a time. Gently mix in the sifted ingredients just until blended, but no more than necessary. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
• Bake for 12 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm to the touch. Cool for a few minutes on cookie sheets before removing to cool on wire racks.

MERRY MALLOW FUDGIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F
• Spray pans lightly or use parchment paper.
• Combine all dry ingredients.
• In separate bowl beat eggs, sugars, vanilla and eggs until smooth.
• Gradually add dry ingredients until dough is completely blended. Refrigerate dough for approximately 1 hour or until dough is completely chilled and stiff.
• Remove marshmallows from freezer. Take dough out of frig. Roll a healthy tablespoon of dough into a ball. Press your thumb into the middle of the ball, making a hollow for the marshmallow to wait. Move dough over and around marshmallow, enclosing the frozen marshmallow. Roll each ball in a bowl of sugar to coat entire ball. Place on pans and bake for 8- 10 minutes. Let sit on pan until cooled or cookie falls apart if moved too soon.

MOM'S FUDGE

Steps:

• Place chocolate chips and butter in a pan (I use an 8 quart to have plenty of room for stirring).
• Use the butter wrappers to grease a 9 x 13 pan.
• Cut up 20 large marshmallows into the pan.
• (Can use 2 C mini) Put in the freezer.
• Place 20 large marshmallows, canned milk and sugar in 6-8 quart heavy pan.
• Stirring, bring to a boil.
• Continue to boil exactly 5 minutes, stirring constantly (Don't worry if there are some darker streaks, just stir better).
• Pour mixture over chocolate chips and butter.
• Continue stirring until mixture looses it's shine and becomes glossy.
• This can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes.
• Stir in vanilla and frozen marshmallows.
• (You can also add nuts at this point).
• Return to the buttered pan and refrigerate.
• I've made this in small tins for gifts by lining them with plastic wrap and placing a piece of cardboard, covered with parchment, on the bottom (inside the plastic wrap).

MOM'S CHRISTMAS FUDGE

Steps:

• Line a 9x13-inch pan with parchment paper.

• Using the back of a spoon or with a plastic bag over your hand, press the fudge into the pan. Refrigerate until firm, 2 to 4 hours.
• Remove fudge from pan and cut into squares. Store in an airtight container.
