Easy Fudge Recipe – Evaporated Milk

Yes, it is fudge season! Making fudge is great because it is so quick and easy. Perfect for all of those holiday get-togethers and treat platters. This Rocky Road Fudge has all the great flavors and textures of rocky road in a melt-in-your-mouth fudge.

I used the Carnation Evaporated Milk Fudge Recipe as the base then added my twist. This fudge has that wonderful creamy texture while not melting into a puddle when left at room temperature.
