300 Best Homemade Candy Recipes CookbookI admit…I have a big sweet tooth! That’s right, every day I eat a little bit of candy and I am pretty happy that I have a medical condition that requires it. How lucky can I be, right? Right!

To help satisfy my sweet tooth and to keep my cravings fresh with new things, I am always looking for new cookbooks to make homemade candy. When given the opportunity to review the 300 Best Homemade Candy Recipes Cookbook, I jumped at the chance!

Microwave Rocky Road FudgeWe decided to make the Microwave Rocky Road Fudge from page 131 in the cookbook. You only need 5 ingredients and your microwave oven to make this one so I consider it completely goof-proof! In less than 5 minutes our fudge was made and about 2 hours later it was firm. Wow…so easy to make and it was a HUGE hit with the family!!!

I am hoping to have some additional free time next week as I spotted a Wacky Potato Fudge Recipe that I just have to make. I remember being a little girl and my Nana making something similar to it.
