GRANNY'S MILLIONAIRE FUDGE RECIPE
This Millionaire Fudge recipe is super easy to make, with no thermometer required, and will exceed all your expectations of having the perfect homemade fudge.
Millionaire Fudge is my favorite fudge of all time. It is only the most incredibly scrumptious fudge you will ever eat.
In the 1950s, Mamie Eisenhower introduced marshmallow whip creme to fudge recipes, changing the whole concept of how easy it is to make, not to mention how delicious it is.
I grew up helping my Mother make this fudge every year for Christmas.
We looked forward to helping scoop the fudge with a tablespoon and push the fudge out with another onto wax paper.
As soon as we were all finished, we would take the spoons and scrape every little bit of fudge we could possibly get off the sides of the pan.
You haven't lived until you have eaten every little bit of hot fudge happiness.

I treasure recipes passed down by my Grandmothers, Mothers, and even Fathers.
I even got to put the Millionaire Fude in my Mother's Christmas tin she put hers in and passed it down to me.
It is old and beat up in places, but the fudge just tastes a little bit yummier stored in her tin.
Hope you enjoy the recipe for Millionaire Fudge. Merry Christmas!
