I remember fudge.........

I used to make a real good fudge and have lost the receipe and ya know there isnt one one the coaco can any more!

The recipe that I do not have, and wish I did is for a date nut roll. Mom made it every year. I copied the recipe down once, but never bothered to make it because my kids did not like it and neither did hubby. I have found a recipe online, and will try to make it, because this hubby does like dates. The one mom had I thought used evaporated milk, sugar and butter as well as dates, nuts and maraschino cherries. The recipe I found did not have the milk in it, or the cherries.

hi celticeagle oh yes my own mom used to make fudge every year at Christmas and it was so good, soft, moist, well fudgy the stuff 'you can buy in the stores just does not have the same taste.Also a large lady who had a small bakery and cafe right next to my dads office when I was just a school kid, she made the most delicous pies, and often if my dad was called away he could not drive me to our farm for lunch. so I got to eat at Fayola's She was Greek and a fantastic cook and baker, oh her pineapple pies were to die for, so delicious. I always had to have a piece of her pineapple pie for my dessert.As I was maybe ten, that would have been in 1936 wow.But it still stays in my mind and I could swear I just tasted the flavor of her pineapple pie. I have not been back to that little town in South Dakota for fifty years. wow.

Now you're talking my language! LOL! There's nothing better than homemade fudge! Store bought isn't bad either! Heck, I'm a chocoholic! On occasion my mom used to make fudge when we were younger too and it was the most fantastic thing that ever came off the stove! Yum! She also made the best homemeade bread ever! She really knew how to cook and bake! Have a great fudgy day! Purrs, Catwoman=^..^= & Mija

This all sounds so good and I need to lose some weight, lol! I'm not over 200 lbs., though. I'm 5'6" and weigh a little over 150 and I feel like I need to cut back at least. My mother was a very good cook. She used to make pecan pies all the time but I didn't care anything for them. I was kind of a picky eater, anyway. I remember the fried okra she used to cook every summer. It was always so crisp! It's been a long time since I've had any fudge like this.

Yes I do, my grandma fruit cake it was most and chewy. I have not found any like she made. They were delicious that staring in July she would get orders from her friends and others. Snow

I remember my grandmother's fudge I loved it so much, but I could never make fudge so I just stopped trying. Now I have really grown out of the taste for fudge. It is no good for me anyhow with my weight and diabetes.

I wish I had the ingredients to make fudge right now. I could use the low-fat milk we have, but it's so much better with whole milk... "Edna's" fudge is the best! Edna is my mom's best friend and she made the absolute best fudge ever! I make it all the time and once or twice it actually came out tasting like Edna's. It's always good, but rarely comes out exactly like hers did. mmmmm......

One of my nieces used to make this delicious refrigerator dessert. The crust was made from crushed walnuts, flour and butter and it was pressed into the baking pan, then she made up some instant pudding and poured it over the crust and put it in the refrigerator to set. I can't remember what the rest of the layers were, but they were put on one at a time and allowed to set before the next layer was added. It was delicious and really not a complicated as it sounds. I wrote the recipe down, but I've lost it so I can't make it any more.

My cousin's grandmother could make anything but her specialty was sweets. She made the best fudge and cheesecake known to man..lol..I really liked this blueberry creamcheese coffeecake that she used to make. I have never been able to find a recipe that rivals it. Maybe one day..lol.

When I am young I never tasted what you ate. It is very far to buy for this thing in my place we are in the town so hard to buy it always. I just remember my young days as my Mom bring hard bread "monay" like a stone a yummy home made "bibingka" in my place and we love it so much. No day that my Mom bring our favorites because that makes us enjoy most of the time when we cannot go together with her.

Oh Boy! I can remember those days big time. My mom uused to make fudge too and it was "OUT OF THIS WORLD"!. As I sit here writing this I can taste it. the texture of it just made it melt in your mouth and then the "FLAVOR" hit you. Mmmmmmmmmmmmm! I also have never experienced anything like that since. I have since then had some pretty good fudge and some I must say came close but did not have that special something Mom's had. Yep, I really know what you mean. thanks for the memory.
