Grandma's Old Fashioned Fudge image

This recipe was passed down to me and it's one of the better recipes that I have tried. Long before marshmallow creme came into any recipe, this is a recipe that came out of a 1930's-1940's cookbook.

This fudge is the best! It's so rich and creamy, and the chocolate flavor is perfect. I love that it's not too sweet, either. It's the perfect treat to satisfy my sweet tooth without being overwhelming.

I made this fudge for a bake sale and it was a huge hit! Everyone loved it. I sold out of all the fudge in no time. I'm definitely going to be making this fudge again for my next bake sale.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I had to omit the walnuts from this recipe. The fudge still turned out delicious, but I think it would have been even better with the walnuts. I'll definitely be making this fudge again, but I'll use a different type of nut.

This fudge is way too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try using less sugar next time. I also found the texture to be a little too crumbly. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fudge turned out grainy. I think I might have cooked it for too long. I'm going to try making it again and see if I can get it right this time.
