At Christmas time I get together with family and friends and we bake cookies and make candy treats to load onto cookie trays to give as gifts or use at family gatherings. Lots and lots of treats and cookies. We have been doing it for years. It is a fun, tiring, messy, and delicious day. Sometimes it is a couple of us other times it is a group. We make several of the old stand byes and often try out a new recipe or two. By the end of the day we have made dozens and dozens of delicious, delectable tasting cookies and other goodies.
One of my favorites to make is a called the Italian Fudge Roll. It was a recipe I received from my mother in law over 33 years ago and who knows how long she had it.
The recipe is very simple and easy to follow. It uses ingredients that you can get at your local grocery store, if they aren't in your pantry and fridge already.
The dough comes together nicely and is easy to work with. The fudge center is simple to make and after making it you well learn that you can use it to make many different kinds of fudge.
If you have never had the chance to taste it, yes, it tastes like a rich creamy chocolate fudge wrapped in a delicate pastry making it easy to eat. Once you have tried it you will be seeking it out on the next tray of cookies.
