I made fudge

[xiphias]

Lis has a work party/pot luck tomorrow. I cooked for it. I made fudge.

I wanted to make Kahlua fudge, but the Kahlua cookbook I found in our kitchen didn't have the fudge recipe, and I couldn't find the one that did. So I looked at the back of the tub of marshmallow fluff, which has its recipe for "Never-Fail Fudge." Their recipe calls for a cup and a half of evaporated milk, and we didn't have any. But we did have Kahlua.

So I substituted a cup and a half of Kahlua for a cup and a half of evaporated milk.

Looking at other recipes, I find that this is about three times the amount of Kahlua as is average for these recipes.

Seems to have turned out pretty well. Seems to have turned out about three times better than those versions, actually.

sounds really good.
i've been debating going to sleep or making habanero amaretto chocolate crunch, and you've inspired me to do the latter.

You know, based on those proportions, I have the sneaking suspicion that your needs might have been better served by just drinking the Kahlua.

Despite my past bad experience with Kahlua, that fudge sounds absolutely delightful.

I know that recipe. If you can substitute any liquid for the evaporated milk, I wonder why they didn't just call for normal milk, which one is much more likely to have lying around. So my life is now easier, thank you.
