Mamie Eisenhower’s Million Dollar Fudge

Last night I made Mamie Eisenhower’s Million Dollar Fudge recipe in honor of her birthday. I used her original recipe but tweaked it only by using semi-sweet chocolate bits for the entire recipe. It came out delicious and the hardest part was letting it cool for a few hours (couldn’t wait to eat it!)

P.S. I also used chopped walnuts in the recipe in the place of “nut meats.”

Original recipe from The Eisenhower Library

    This is basically the recipe that I use every Christmas season. But I make a few major changes.

    1) Use 6 T butter, not 2…..

    2) Use 4 c sugar, not 4 1/2 c.

    3) Boil lightly only until sugar is dissolved.

    4) Use dark chocolate chips. 4 1/2 c…..

    5) Use 2 c mini marshmallows.

    6) Add 9 regular candy canes, crushed.

    7) Add 1 t vanilla.
