Frosting fudge from a few days ago is awesome sm

In Reply to: Looking for recipes for... - sm
I made 4 different kinds, and they all turned out incredibly good. Here's the combos I used -
Caramel frosting (which I think is something new) + butterscotch chips + half a bag of Heath toffee pieces
Regular chocolate frosting + Hershey's Special Dark chocolate chips + 1 cup chopped walnuts
Milk chocolate frosting + Andes mint chocolate pieces
Coconut pecan frosting + milk chocolate chips
All of them are made the same - microwave the frosting in a bowl for about 90 seconds. It will be bubbly. Stir in chips & nuts/toffee/etc. Pour into lightly greased 8x8 pan. Cool, cut, & eat.
The coconut pecan one tastes like German chocolate candy, and the caramel/butterscotch/toffee one was the biggest hit of the party last night.

I think I would like your frosting better..
one of my sil's makes this, but she uses an already made chocolate frosting & the frosting is just tooooo sweet for me, maybe this would be better, I have even thought about leaving it off.. lol which kinda defeats the purpose
Is it a white frosting? could this be it?
I don't know if this is crunchy, but it does get sort of a crust on the outside after awhile. If this isn't it, maybe some more info? |

FLUFFY BOILED FROSTING |
1 1/2 cups sugar
2/3 cup water
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
3 egg whites
Pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
In a heavy saucepan combine sugar, water and cream of tartar. Slowly bring mixture to a boil, stirring sides of the saucepan with a brush dipped in water to remove any sugar crystals. Cover and boil for about 3 minutes or until a candy thermometer registers 245 degrees.
Beat egg whites with pinch of salt until glossy and peaked. Slowly pour in syrup as you continue to beat the whites. Beat until cool and frosting is soft and fluffy. Fold in vanilla |
Cookie frosting
When I read your post I thought of the black and white cookies, the frosting you described is very much that consistency, IMO. Here is a link to that recipe. You may want to make a few of these too. Yum..

Special recipe for frosting?
I need help with finding a recipe for frosting. Years ago, I ate some wonderful cookies that had a frosting that was hard on the outside but soft on the inside. I tried and tried to get the recipe but to no avail. Can anyone help?
Funny you mention the frosting
make this frosting as directed and be sure to use the corn syrup - it tastes like a melted candy bar. When I serve this people always comment on the frosting.

fudge recipes
Thanks for all the good recipes. My mother used to be the "queen of candy making" until she got Alzheimer's but I never wrote down her recipes if she ever had one; and of course could not remember how she made it or the variations - she just "winged it" and I stirred it because she had severe arthritis in her hands. Thanks for sharing!
Chocolate mousse cake with ganache frosting! nm

when i first read that i thought wow that's eating frosting and chips
but then i thought about the fudge i make - milk, p-nut butter, & marshmallow cream and it's probably just as bad, loaded up with the calories. Once i was going to count up the calories in an 8 x 8 pan but never did. It's at least 2,000, and it really doesn't make a whole lot volume-wise.
I have OD'd on peanut butter fudge
I don't know why I do this every year. I just went downstairs for a drink and loaded up on smoked ham with a peanut butter fudge chaser. A moment on the lips, forever on the hips...
I make around $50,000 but I work 7 days a week and long days, although I'm not a fast typer eithe
I think even if your fast, you'd still have to work more than 40 hours a week to make that but I could be wrong.
I remember those days too, but these days they don't want make any child felt left out. They wan
to make each of them feel special and that they have accomplished something. My 8-year-old brings a certificate of some kind during the day, accelerated reader award, trustworthy award, jr. achievement award, etc. I guess in a way, no one kid is pointed out as the "teacher's pet" or have the other kids being jealous of him/her for getting this or that award. 
Peanut butter fudge recipe
 When I was little my mom used to make the world's best peanut butter fudge. She used brown sugar in it. There was a quickie fudge recipe in the Mrs Clause cookbook that called for just chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, was thinking about trying something with that. Does anybody have a good brown sugar peanut butter fudge recipe?
Hardboiled eggs, jello, fudge, merangue, the list is endless!

Awesome!!!
However, this chicken HATES open heights -- nebber in my life would I be able to do this but kudos to your kidlet!!!!
My guy is awesome too. sm ....
OP, you say overall he is a "good guy"; really he isn't or you wouldn't be asking about his behavior. "Good guys" beat their wives and emotionally abuse them too. Sounds like you are married a selfish, controlling man with a lot of problems.
Awesome!!
Congrats on your success, and thanks for the laugh.
Funniest part is I can actually see MYSELF doing exactly those things:-)
They were so awesome! nm

Awesome!
And so this free software and a foot pedal and spell checker is all I need??? I just can't believe that Express Scribe is free!!!
THAT"S AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

!
that's awesome
what a thing to do for something you believe in!!! i think they are amazing little creatures... and i agree with the laugh and cry... at the same time!! :) have a great weekend
You are awesome! - thank you. I'm actually
going to take several of your suggestions and put them together. A bird house kit, a garden kit that you start indoors during the winter, and a subscription for some puzzle books every month! THANK YOU!!!
Awesome!
I have two musicians in my family (BF and oldest son, both guitarists) and these would make awesome gifts! I think the E-bay idea is an excellent one!
awesome
Sorry if I was quick to jump to conclusions or offended you.
That's awesome!
I have to wait until next year to have a garden. Long story, don't ask. LOL I'm going to definitely try that next year, though.
That's so awesome - wish I had family like that! nm

awesome products
Just wanted to say thanks for trying to recruit me, but I am already in Melaleuca and I just wanted to tell you that I think these are also wonderful products and I buy them faithfully also, and I have to say that my favorite product is the laundry detergent. It gets my husbands greasy work clothes clean with just one squirt of detergent.
The stuff is awesome!
Works when nothing else does.

Thank you! Awesome post! nm

Awesome!!!!! You did the right thing actually!
Even though new is good, fixing things up on your own is even better! Anyhow, each new project will make you feel so productive! Good luck on your new endeavor and lovely new home! Here's to ya!
Awesome and lame
Awesome: Traveling Wilburys and their re-released albums. There is nothing better.
Lame: No more new Traveling Wilbury albums. Ever. What's even more lame is how underrated George Harrison is. But that's my opinion, coming from me, Apple Scruff. :)
awesome addendum
I already know I spelled awesome incorrectly.
What an awesome idea!
I never thought of doing that! I grew up with a mom who thought cooking meals was opening a can of something teach myself how to be a better cook. I may try that this Christmas with my crock pot! That sounds wonderful.
Congratulations! That is awesome.
Tell him great job from me. You must be very proud.
That guy is awesome. My sister got a new dog -
2 years ago, and after her previous dog was kind've a head-case, she got his book and followed his methods. (She also started off with pupply obedience group classes.) It's a huge dog - half Husky & half Golden Retriever - and she is now the best behaved and most wonderful dog imaginable. I attended a pet parade with her and her dog that she was photographing, and some people's dogs were behaving terribly, but her Dog-Whisperer-technique dog was a total lady. She can take that dog ANYWHERE. But of course the secret is she is dedicated to training, and works with her at least twice a day on their long walks through the neighborhood.
Awesome information
Thanks for all of that. Very interesting. I am going to send it to friends. Wow, lots to know and working at home, I would have never known...we would have missed it! Plus, now I will be on guard for lunacy all around me! LOL.
Awesome Idea!
Great way to make a kick-@ss living! :)
