QUEBEC FUDGE (SUCRE A LA CREME)



Quebec Fudge (Sucre a La Creme) image

This is the only fudge I can make. I simply love it. I don't make it too often for obvious reasons. It is just so creamy. I like to pour this in a buttered 13" pan. Makes them thinner but much more of them. Otherwise you can use the regular buttered 9" pan. I have been using this recipe for over 30 years now. Quantity of squares depends on pan size and how big you cut them.
