Looking 4 a recipe 4 Peppermint Fudge. Can't find one online & extract isn't good. Thank you.?

Question

Fudge comes in different flavors and we can't find one that even sounds remotely like peppermint fudge. I found 2 on different websites that was called peppermint fudge but there was no chocolate involved. Isn't fudge "chocolate"? Please help with anything you can. Thank you in advance for your help.

Answer 1

This might be a little more up your alley, but just remember, peanut butter fudge has no chocolate in it remember...

INGREDIENTS
2 (10 ounce) packages vanilla baking chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1 1/2 cups crushed candy canes
1 dash red or green food coloring
DIRECTIONS
Line an 8 inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, and grease the foil.
Combine the vanilla chips and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until almost melted, remove from heat and continue to stir until smooth. When chips are completely melted, stir in the peppermint extract, food coloring, and candy canes.
Spread evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours, then cut into squares.

This one was a hit at my house. I only had 1 cup of crushed candy canes on hand, and it turned out great (12 candy canes = 1 cup crushed). I almost think that 1-1/2 cups might have been too much. My husband took a bunch to work and they were gobbled up quickly!

My 6 year old loved this fudge. I didn't really like the vanilla and peppermint combination, but it was very easy to make. My boss also liked this alot.

This is really great candy. I don't know if I could classify it as fudge- because it is the texture of a chocolate bar. The flavor is great. I only used 1 cup of crushed candy canes. I added about 2 tsp. of peppermint extract though so that you could actually taste the mint. I colored it red- and thought it to be a bit of an eyesore. I didn't have any extra candy canes to crush and sprinkle on, but that would've made it look great. Instead, I had some green mint chips. I melted them in the microwave, and spread them over the fudge. It was green and red layered- it really added a lot to the presentation. I will try this with milk chocolate too. Thanks.

This is my second year making this recipe and I will probably make it every year from now on. Everyone who's tasted it raves about it, even my 3 kids who don't care all that much for peppermint. A few trial and error tips: Last year I added the red food coloring and the fudge came out pink.. I wasn't really pleased with that. This year I left out the food coloring altogether and I think it's much prettier this way. Also, there is no need for the added fat of "greasing" the foil. Use Glad's Press and Seal Wrap (make sure you refrigerate for the full 2 hours!) and it peels right off with no sticking. Also, make sure you use candy canes that are easy to crush. If the chunks are too big the fudge won't cut easily. Last year I used the individually wrapped, round peppermints but I thought it was better this year using regular, cheapo candy canes. I put a tin of this in all of my Christmas packages this year, it's a nice change from the traditional chocolate with nuts fudge that everyone else makes. Now somebody please stop me before I go eat it all.

Answer 2

You can make white chocolate fudge. Use a regular fudge recipe. To make the swirled peppermint fudge you will use the white chocolate in two separate bowls in one bowl you will add red food coloring but put peppermint flavoring in both bowls. pour the white fudge into your molding/firming pan and then start swirling the red fudge through the white "chocolate" with a butter knife or small icing spatula. let set until molded and firm.

Answer 3

Use a basic Fudge recipe adding chopped up Peppermint candies.(kind of like you would nuts) Very yummy.

Answer 4

According to this interpretation, the phrase “once enlightened” (verse 4) refers to some level of instruction in biblical truth. However, understanding the words of scripture is not the same as being regenerated by the Holy Spirit. For example, John 1:9 describes Jesus, the “true Light,” giving light “to every man”; but this cannot mean the light of salvation, because not every man is saved. Through God’s sovereign power, every man has enough light to be held responsible. This light either leads to the complete acceptance of Jesus Christ or produces condemnation in those who reject such light. The people described in Hebrews 6:4-6 are of the latter group—unbelievers who have been exposed to God’s redemptive truth and perhaps have made a profession of faith, but have not exercised genuine saving faith.
