Tips:

Use a heavy saucepan. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the fudge from scorching.
Be patient. It takes time for the fudge to reach the right consistency. Don't rush the process or you'll end up with a grainy fudge.
If you're using a candy thermometer, remove the fudge from the heat when it reaches 234 degrees Fahrenheit (112 degrees Celsius).
If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can use the cold water test. Drop a small amount of fudge into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, the fudge is ready.
Stir in your favorite mix-ins when the fudge is almost done cooking. This could include nuts, chocolate chips, marshmallows, or dried fruit.
Pour the fudge into a greased 8x8 inch pan. Let it cool for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares.

Fudge is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of fudge that will be sure to impress your friends and family. So what are you waiting for? Give this recipe a try today!
