LEMON FUDGE
A lovely sweet & tart recipe for lemon fudge I found online, posted by Elizabeth LaBau. For me, boiling the sugar & milk mixture for 6 minutes did not result in as firm a fudge as I'd like, but still, it was great, delicious fudge that also had the perfect consistency - as long as I kept it in the fridge. ;-) I'll try a candy thermometer the next time to see if boiling the mixture to soft ball stage doesn't do the trick.

- To prevent the fudge from crystallizing, do not let it boil.
- Use a candy thermometer to reach the correct temperature for the fudge.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- Stir in the flavorings and nuts after the fudge has reached the correct temperature.
- Pour the fudge into a prepared pan and let it cool completely before cutting it into squares.
