Nanny's Fudge


A few days after I made some delicious-dairy-free-chocolate-peanut-butter-fudge (phew...that's a mouthful), I made some chocolate fudge. My mom sent me a fudge recipe that my Nanny made when my mom was a child, the same fudge recipe my mom made for us when we were children. Of course, being my disorganised and scattered self, I started to make it and then realized that I didn't have any evaporated milk. I had used it in an extra pumpkin pie. But I did have almond milk in the fridge, so I gave it a try and it worked...deeeelicious. Another delicious dairy free fudge! Mmm...mmm.

1 tsp vanilla
1/4 c (57 grams) butter or margarine

    1. The consistency of the fudge was different...a little less firm. The flavor was slightly different, but not very noticable. You might notice if you had one of each right next to each other, but not really otherwise. The one I made with coconut milk had a subtle coconut flavor. Hope this helps!
