the fudge recipe was given to us by @Samantha drawz.....we made one change to it but here it is......

Ingredients:
6 ounces of fresh goat's milk or cow's milk
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) butter
8 ounces semisweet chocolate
4 ounces milk chocolate
7 ounces marshmallow creme
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

the one change we made was to use 12 ounces of white chocolate chips instead of the 8 ounces semisweet chocolate and 4 ounces milk chocolate.

Instructions:
1. Line a 9 inch square pan with waxed paper and coat with cooking spray
2. Combine milk and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle boil. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat
3. Add butter, and stir until melted. Add chocolate, marshmallow crème and vanilla. Stir until smooth. Add nuts, if desired.
4. Pour into prepared pan, and refrigerate until firm, ideally for 24 hours. When ready to serve, allow fudge to sit at room temperature for 20 to 30 minutes for easy cutting!

Storage:
Fudge will keep in the fridge, covered, for up to a month

To Freeze:
Wrap fudge in waxed paper, then plastic wrap and seal in freezer bag

Sounds good! I'm not a big fan of of white chocolate, so if I make it I'll stick to the original recipe.

A lot of people absolutely love my fudge, but its has so much sugar! Like super sweet! Its just the 10 minute recipe...

So what is the recipe you use?

My dad can't eat chocolate but can have white chocolate so we tried it that way so he could try it too If we make white fudge again, we may try adding nuts or even pieces of cookies

That is awesome! Mine I messed up by attempting my first ever try as a double batch I think... BUT, it sure makes for some yummy ice cream toppings

Finn went home today- he was one of Melanie's bucklings- now a wether. He will have 3 other goat wethers to hang out with!

Congrats on the sale!

Forgot to post the fudge recipe. I actully found it here on the forum years ago. Here it is-

I swear this is the easiest fudge recipe I've ever had, so give this a try the next time you have 10 minutes to make fudge.
Ingredients:
1 lb. Powdered Sugar
1/2 Cup Cocoa
1/2 Cup Butter
1/4 Cup Goats Milk
1 tsp Vanilla
1/2 Cup Broken pecans or walnuts
Combine Sugar and cocoa thoroughly in a large microwavable bowl by sifting it together. Make a well in the center of the mixture. Place cut up butter and milk in the well.
DO NOT STIR!!!!
Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Remove and add vanilla, stirring to blend. Stir in nuts and put into buttered dish or pan.
That's it!
Your microwave may vary so you might go a few seconds over the 2 minutes if you have a lower heat microwave. Sifting the sugar is very important, I tried to save time and not sift and had lumpy fudge.
I've made this with peanut butter (sub part of the butter for peanut butter).
I've also added more milk to make it creamier and used it for brownie frosting....nummy!
It comes out perfect every time and never scorches!

edited to add....I've given up sifting the p. sugar, I just wait til it's done 'cooking' in the microwave, stir it a bit, then mix it w/ a mixer to dissolve lumps. Works great *if* you're fast.
