Daddy made this fudge for my sister an I . Mom worked evenings, so thats when he would make it. I remember the Flintstones jelly glass sitting on the counter with water so he could test it. We were in a hurry to have some, so in the winter he would set the dish out on the porch with a cover on it so it would chill faster. To this day its my favorite fudge.
