EASY CHRISTMAS EGGNOG FUDGE (NO THERMOMETER!)



Easy Christmas Eggnog Fudge (No Thermometer!) image

We have been making this fudge at the holiday season for years, if cooking time is followed directly this will produce a wonderful fudge that tastes just as good maybe even better than the fudge prepared with a candy thermometer but you won't need one for this! --- this is sure to become a favorite at the holiday season --- use only store-bought full-fat eggnog for this :)
