Easy Homemade Rocky Road Fudge

For young enthusiastic kitchen explorers there is no better time than now to flex your creative abilities in making sweet holiday treats to eat and give away. For the past year my oldest daughter Abbi (age 12) has been taking it upon herself to cook up batches of sweet confections without any help from me, which I love seeing her do. My only request of her has been that she cleans up everything after she’s done.

Abbi has her favorite recipes she that she likes to make over and over again. She gains confidence every time she makes one of her special treats. She is most known by her family, close friends and teachers for her amazing fudge. She fell in love with fudge after buying some at an Oregon seaside resort town that sold about twenty different varieties. She bought a small block of rocky road fudge and likes to brag that she ate it all in one hour.

Since then she enjoys making homemade fudge because “it’s easy and lasts a long time.” Most of the time when she makes a batch it is to give away to others and share with friends. She also enjoys making it with friends.
Homemade treats are a wonderful way to spread joy and holiday cheer with those you care about. I am very proud to share Abbi’s Easy Homemade Rocky Road Fudge recipe with you. May it bring a smile to those you share it with during this holiday season.
