Thanx Needles I'll try this sounds good I could repair my damaged reputation as a good cook, :thumbup:

thank you for sharing, this sounds great

You can use any combination of frosting and chocolate chips. I made several batches last year for the holidays.

thanks for sharing..

Gonna try the butterscotch. Thanks for recipe...just copied it down.

A quick fudge is..A can of sweet condenced can milk and 12 oz. of chocolate chips and a tea.spoon of vanilla , melt in a pan / w/ butter , then pour into pans . DottieBug

The only fudge I make: Microwave one bag of Old Fashioned Chocolate Cream Drops, 1 cup of peanut butter, 1 tbs. butter, a little vanilla extract. Microwave until just melty, stir and spread in pan. Hurry, it sets up fast. You can add anything to this, dried fruit bits, Rice Krispies, uncooked oats, marshmallows, caramels.....................................

I don't keep cans of frosting around. My favorite go-to quick fudge recipe. I've never tried this without the cocoa, but it might produce a decent vanilla fudge. Virtually all the vanilla fudge recipes I find call for marshsmallow fluff (or marshmallows), which I also don't keep in the house.

Quick Fudge

Adapted from the recipe on the Dominos Powdered Sugar box. This fudge always works out just right.

1 lb powdered sugar (3 ½ cups)
2/3 cup cocoa
¼ tsp salt
8 tbsp butter or margarine (1 stick)
3 tbsp evaporated milk
1 tbsp vanilla
1 cup chopped nuts

Combine all ingredients except nuts in the top of a double boiler. Place over simmering water. Stir until smooth. Add nuts and mix. Spread fudge quickly in buttered 9x5” loaf pan. Cool. Cut. Serve.
