In that case, you can't have my mother’s recipe for Ever-Fail Fudge. Her secret was undercooking it and wondering what a soft-ball stage meant. She would then pour it into a pan and freeze it in the wistful hope that it would set. But alas, even the freezer couldn't harden what the stove had failed to cook. Fudge requires teamwork on the part of every appliance. We always ended up eating it with a spoon while Mom would say she really should buy a candy thermometer. She never did.
My SIL has her grandmother’s peanut butter fudge recipe on a handwritten card. I peaked at it and mistook “2 tbs peanut butter” for “2 tubs” and that’s when I knew I am not worthy of another families generational recipes.
I am going to build a fudge empire to vindicate your great grandmother. If Godiva can charge $3.15 each for truffles, who knows what people will pay for your fudge?
Love monologues!!! And a fudge monologue is so sweet :).
I agree.. I enjoyed and laughed out loud several times
*makes fudge with part of a recipe.
Ugh!
Good luck, sucker.
Thanks
Your posts never fail to make me smile. Thank you! 🤍

😂 I don’t want it, Marianne!

That would have changed the flavor a bit! 😂

I will see you in court! (I'll bring fudge.)
