Fudge!

The boys and I spent yesterday afternoon making fudge for teachers, neighbors and friends. We have used this recipe for years because it's so easy and delicious. It is:

Fantastic Fudge

1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups (12 oz package) semisweet chocolate chips
2 tbs butter

1. Line an 8" square baking pan with aluminum foil. Spray foil with vegetable cooking spray. In nonstick saucepan, combine milk and sugar. Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Add chocolate and butter, stirring until chocolate melts.

2. Spread mixture evenly in pan, and cool in refrigerator until firm, about 2 hours. Cut, share and enjoy!

We've added nuts.....coated the top with powdered sugar.....dropped pieces of crunched up candy canes in, etc. You can really add anything to it.

Here is Carter making most of the recipe by himself! (We doubled the recipe this time.)

Adding the milk and the sugar.


We moved Jack into the kitchen to observe. Of course, he had his favorite toy, the remote control.


Stirring...Carter's favorite part.


Adding the chips.


More stirring.


Spreading it out! So easy!


We ate as much as we gave away!
