Emelyn then obtained the recipe, made 30 pounds of it and sold it at the Vassar Senior Auction. 2. The word of fudge spread all around the women colleges.
It was later that Smith and Wellesley College each developed their own recipes for fudge. E. What exactly is fudge? 1.

Tiny microcrystal’s of sugar is what gives fudge its firm smooth texture. 3. The secret to successful fudge is getting the crystals to form at the right time. 4.

Letting the fudge cool undisturbed will let to crystals form at the right time. Transition: Now that you know where fudge came from and what exactly is fudge let me tell you about what exactly you need to make chocolate fudge. ) II.

B. After visiting to grocery store you need to get all your ingredients out and ready to go. 1. A couple of kitchen tools are needed: first a candy thermometer. 2. If you do not own a candy thermometer local grocery stores have them located in the kitchen aisle. 3. Other tools needed include: a large saucepan and a wooden spoon.

D. Mix together the sugar, evaporated milk, and butter. Do not let sit while the pan is heating up because when the mixture becomes hot it will start to burn and turn brown.
E. Get out the candy thermometer. Let the sugar mixture go to a rolling boil, while the thermometer reaches a 234 ? F. 1. Never put the thermometer directly in the sugar mixture! 2. First put the thermometer in a separate container that is brought to a boil and registers 212 ? F then move it to the saucepan with the sugar mixture and wait for the desired temperature. F. After it reaches the correct degrees, remove the saucepan from the heat. G. Add the 12 oz. of milk chocolate and the marshmallow creme to the mixture. H.
