Yummmm this sounds good.....will try it for the Holidays


Must admit I've never made fudge with brown sugar - but your recipe has inspired me...nice post!


Thanks! My Grandmother always made fudge with brown sugar, cream, vanilla and "butter the size of an egg." It could get pretty grainy if you didn't cook it JUST right. Adding the icing sugar at the end of this recipe helps to smooth out that problem. My Grandmother didn't use a thermometer, but instead drizzled a bit of the hot syrup in a cup of cold water to see if it formed a ball. To me that was the very best part to eat!

If you try this recipe, any suggestions as to how long step 7 should be would be appreciated, that's the part I'm still working on. So maybe I shouldn't have called it No Fail, but it really is a pretty forgiving candy to make.


Sounds like panuche. Can't wait to try it. Thanks.


My grandmother used to give us brown sugar fudge at Christmas every year.. it is my favorite.she also added peanut butter to it...it's the best.
