I agree! canned frosting, marshmallow fluff, and cocoa don't fly with me. I am old school too. It doesn't take that long to make authentic recipes and they taste so much better. 😊
Yummy stuff! That is how I make fudge. People I've given it to as gifts love and can't wait till I make them some more. Most of the people I give it to say it is the best fudge they have ever had.
Ohhh yummm, just made as in the description, i forgot to constantly stir and almost burnt the bottom, left some browner flecks in the fudge, took forever though more then 20 minutes taste like rice pudding fudge, addictive almost ate the whole lot, yummmm😊
Thank you! I’m trying to figure out a recipe my grandmother made. She wrote out the directions rather badly, so no one has been able to figure it out. Gonna give it a try this week!
Did your vanilla fudge sugar? My grandma - born 1914 - always added a TBL spoon of Karo. She stressed how important that was. I never use corn syrup, but over time I have discovered 2 important things about making REAL traditional fudges (don't stir the butter (or peanut butter until its cool, let them sit!)! 1 corn syrup prevents sugaring and so does NOT Stirring til its all cool. Granny knew best!
Step out of tradition a bit with the vanilla, 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 flavored non dairy creamer - yum! My grandma always used evaporated milk, I use heavy whipping cream - she would not be happy with me but boy is it yummy!
I just made my first successful chocolate and chocolate coconut fudge. I've got some failed blackberry jam from last year that's been frozen and I think it could be turned into a nice fudge. I'm not going to eat it all of course, I'm going to give my neighbors diabetes too! ☺️
@@ICookAndPaint It _is_ amazing! I 100% recommend! It tastes like what mounds candy aspires to be. I got done making the blackberry fudge about an hour ago. It tastes more like taffy at the moment, but maybe it'll be more fudge-like tomorrow. I encountered a funny coincidence yesterday when giving away my fudge. I learned a couple things about a neighbor 1) she's a bit of a hippie: trying to avoid food dyes and corn syrup, 2) she recently found out she's expecting, 3) she's been strongly craving chocolate ( likely because she's pregnant) but has run out of chocolate. And here I randomly waltz up with no-dye, no-corn-syrup chocolate fudge and knock on her door. We're practically strangers, she was just the closest occupied house to mine and thus the first door I knocked on. The universe seems to have a sense of humor.
I do not know the exact temperature but you can start beating the fudge very soon after adding the butter, like even 5-10 minutes after. Sometimes it can start setting up too fast if you wait too long.
We made fudge as kids but somehow messed it up it didn’t go solid kinda like it was melted it tasted so good can’t recreate it again but does someone know how to that I have been after it for many years was so yummy 😋
Thanks you for the recipe- followed and came out well! Only adjustment is your online recipe says to add 1 tsp of salt I followed your recipe and it’s salty Other recipes say add about 1/4 tsp of salt so suspect you’re online salt of 1,tsp was a typo?
Thank you so much for pointing it out, it should be 1/2 teaspoon. I like to put a little more in mine but the recipe should say 1/2 teaspoon so thank you again 😀🙌
@@ICookAndPaint I made it again with 1/4 tsp and it came out great ! Thank you for a great and easy to follow recipe- I would say it IS “foolproof” following your instructions ☺️. I made “real” fudge years ago and it beat it for over 20 minutes and said never again. You beat your recipe less than 5 mins so it is perfect!
It looks grainy but it’s actually not. Maybe the lighting? If you stir generously in the beginning while it’s coming to a boil, it will be very smooth :)
Wonderful video! Thanks! Now what about peanut butter fudge? I'd really love to know if it would be just a matter of adding peanut butter to your first recipe and how much? Thanks!
Hi! Thank you for watching. The recipe blog will be under construction for a few more days so I’ve added the recipe in the description below the video. Enjoy :)
@@ICookAndPaint Did you ever make the peanut butter fudge video? I clicked on this video because I thought that it was peanut butter fudge on the left side of the thumbnail, and I have a ton of peanut butter to use.
I made this recipe, and it tasted like sugared cardboard! I have a candy thermometer, did exactly what you showed, but it tasted awful! I used a different recipe, and it came out great. Sorry about criticizing your recipe, but something is not right. Maybe it was something I did, but the other one I made came out good. 🤔 Thanks anyway.

This recipe is the real thing! Thank you!
You’re so welcome :)
Yea! REAL fudge just like my mom made. NO marshmallow cream or sweetened condensed milk. My mom always did the ball test. Brings back good memories.
Your mom…very cool lady! 👍
Finally, fudge with no cocoa or marshmallows! Awesome job showing the process. Thanks
What can I say I am old school :) Thank you for your kind words :)

How do you prevent it from looking so lumpy/sand-like?

So happy, you are welcome :)
It looks delicious have a great day
Thanks, you too :)
My favorite the gritty fudge
Yes!!!!!
Great! Delicious recipe!😁👍
Thanks!
Wow wonderful preparation 👌👌looks delicious 😋
Thank you :)
My Grandma and my Great Aunt made fudge, or homemade candy as they called it, as Christmas. It was always such a treat! I can't wait to try this.
This will take you back :) Enjoy 💜

@@ICookAndPaint thanks! Now I just have to wait for a day that isn't almost as humid as literally swimming in a lake.
you're seriously excellent and i love your paintings too!!
What a nice compliment, thank you :)
Looks good I’m gonna make it!

Lovely

If you do use dry cocoa it is either 8 Tblsp or 1/2 cup just an FYI
Thank you :)
Beast mode!
do you have the temperature the mixture needs to be before i can stir in it after the butter has been melting for 20 minutes?
I do not know the exact temperature but you can start beating the fudge very soon after adding the butter, like even 5-10 minutes after. Sometimes it can start setting up too fast if you wait too long.
@@ICookAndPaint ah okay thank you!, will that affect the texture? i like my fudge smooth
@@ludi0us This ensures a very smooth texture.
Is there a way prevent it from looking so lumpy/sand-like?
@@apexdude105 lump and sandlike is what I want
Could I use all evaporated milk?
Yes you can :)
I dont hv evaporated milk could u pls tell me what can i substitute it with
You can use regular milk and it will still be good :)
So why add the butter after the cooking? this is pretty out there in terms of fudge recipes, just curious what the motivation there is
I honestly don’t know, I just always saw it this way in the old cookbooks.
Can you please post the recipe. Thanks a million!
Link should be in the description :)

Can I add peanut butter to this?
I wouldn’t risk altering this recipe but for peanut butter fudge please watch my other video :) ruclips.net/video/M5QpjXImAWU/видео.html
Could you do rum and raisin next?
That sounds phenomenal-I will definitely try :)
Looking forward to it! :)
We made fudge as kids but somehow messed it up it didn’t go solid kinda like it was melted it tasted so good can’t recreate it again but does someone know how to that I have been after it for many years was so yummy 😋
If it doesn’t go solid that usually means the fudge wasn’t cooked long enough. I hope this helps :)
