Love unique candy recipes, can’t wait to try these recipes.
Thanks Marilyn,
This one is a keeper. 🙂
I’m so glad that I found your page. I will be making candy all of 2016!
Hi Lyta, I know I have a slight obsession with fudge! 🙂
I made these last year for the first time to bring to a friend’s winter birthday celebration. They were such a hit that this year I am making multiple batches for holiday gifts to give to my hair guy, work colleagues, neighbors, book club, etc. (And they freeze beautifully, so I may have Valentine’s Day covered, too!) Thanks for an easy and delicious recipe; it has already become a tradition.
That’s amazing Nicole! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
I would love to make this fudge, however, there is a picture covering number 8 for the Praline Center. What is it? thanks
Hi Karen, No.8 is the picture. There is no more instructions.
