Crunchy nuts and chocolate smooth fudge flavor is an irresistible treat! It’s believed that fudge was accidentally invented the 1880’s when in the United States when a baker was trying to make caramel.
Fudge recipes began to spread around the world with different variations. Fudge is a type of confectionery, which is usually very sweet, extremely rich and often flavored with cocoa. It is made by mixing sugar, butter, and milk and heating it to the soft-ball stage, and then beating the mixture while it cools so that it acquires a smooth, creamy consistency.
Chocolate can also be mixed in to make chocolate fudge. Fudge can also be used in brownies. Nutty fudge continues to be one of the most popular fudge recipes.
