Tasty Tuesday Fudge Surprise!

This is the fudge recipe I mentioned in last Tuesday's comments. As you can see, the quantities are large enough for gift giving, so if you're only making it for yourself, you might want to cut it down a bit.

Or you could share it with Benji! He looks sort of hungry to me. I think I would enjoy cooking for him.

No, wait. . . I like to cook no matter who eats it. Feeding Benji would just be icing on the cake. . . or the fudge.
