My goal is to make 3 or 4 batches to split up and give out along with a
variety of home made christmas candies.

My first batch, I forgot to add the vanilla before beating.
Flavor was great, but the texture a bit crumbly and chewy. It's amazing
how much vanilla ext is important to Fudge, just based on the chemistry
aspect.

Made two more batches over the last week, turned out perfect. Yaa.
1 or 2 more to go.

Made a 3rd batch tonight. Right after finishing the cooking stage, I
moved it off the burner to add the butter. My digital thermometer tilts
and a little dribble of water comes out of the part where the wire is
clamped to the probe. seize-city. *-scream-*

This batch had to be dumped, but what do you think I could do with the
first that has the chewy texture? chop up & add to cookie dough? DH
thinks it would melt too much. It would be great for an addition to
home made ice cream, but I'm not really able to make that at this point.
Too much to do. Can fudge be frozen?
