Grandma's Old Fashioned Fudge image

This recipe was passed down to me and it's one of the better recipes that I have tried. Long before marshmallow creme came into any recipe, this is a recipe that came out of a 1930's-1940's cookbook.

This fudge is delicious, but it's a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fudge turned out grainy. I'm going to try again, but I'll be sure to follow the recipe more carefully this time.
