A Better No Bake Fudge Recipe

2 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 small can evaporated milk 5 oz.
6 oz. Semisweet chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla
2 tbsp butter
1 cup chopped walnuts

Mix sugar and evaporated milk together in a heavy pan. Mixture will be thick. Cook on low heat and watch closely stirring it with a whisk periodically until it begins to boil. Stop stirring and let come to a full rolling boil. Then boil exactly 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Then add chocolate and vanilla. Last mix in chopped nuts. Pour into a buttered glass dish. Firms rapidly. Cover with plastic wrap. Place in refrigerator for two hours. Take out of refrigerator and cut into squares.

I made this myself, it really works, and it is so good and sweet and nutty. Enjoy everyone

Mmmm...! This sounds yummy! I shall try it out!

dangit I thought there would be free samples!!!

giggles, on occasion, I make alot of this fudge and give it away to family and friends for christmas, smiles

Ok, maybe it's me and I'm not the best candy maker, but I made this recipe before and it didn't "fudge", ended up using it for frosting on cupcakes (which worked beautifully, I might add)

I did something similar (granulated instead of powdered sugar) that got rave reviews. Didn't refrigerate it, though just let it set out for hours.

powdered sugar gives it a smoother texture

Timing it perfectly is the key. smiles

Oh, I'm sure it is. I'll stick to my holiday baking of 100 dozen cookies, give or take a few dozen. I don't like fudge anyway

Cookies are great too. Does anyone have a simple sugar cookie recipe or ginger cookie recipe to share? smiles

Stole this off of allrecipes.com, but I'm addicted to them and every time I make any cookies some of these get made.
