NO COOKIN' NECESSARY CHEESE FUDGE

No Cookin' Necessary Cheese Fudge image

My kids love to help mix this up with their hands (so they can eat the fudge off their fingers afterwards of course) -- or you can use a mixer with a dough hook. All ingredients should be at room temperature. The recipe can also be halved but this freezes beautifully so don't hesitate to make the whole batch.
