Valerie so helped me when I was ill by watching over my son. This recipe was her gift to me. We have enjoyed this fudge through all the years as the kids were growing up. Now that they are blessing with me all of these grandchildren, the grandkids are enjoying it too.

PERFECT CHOCOLATE FUDGE

I found this in an ancient Betty Crocker cookbook- the novel with the cover half ripped off and corners extremely worn, on my grandma's cookbook shelf. She was going to throw it away, until we found this recipe. My grandma complains about something always going wrong with her fudge. But, with this...no complaints. It comes out perfect- and very addicting- every time.
