Invented in the United States over 100 years ago, this classic confection is made by boiling sugar in milk or cream to the soft-ball stage, and then beating the mixture while it cools to acquire a smooth creamy consistency. Extremely rich and always delicious, fudge makes a great homemade gift to share with family and friends.
