At The Farm, fudge is as essential to my Christmas festivities as the decorated trees. Ever since I can remember, the day the chocolate and peanut butter fudge were made, Christmas had truly begun. I wrote about these delicious and simple fudge recipes last Christmas, but this year, we have a quick video just in time for your Christmas gatherings! It works best to have all the ingredients measured in advance and ready to use since these recipes are time-conscious. Having things prepared makes for a stress-free cooking time! Merry Christmas!
