Mom’s Recipe – Velveeta Cheese Fudge

*One of Mary Myrick’s best recipes*

Ingredients:

  • 2 (1 lb.) boxes confectioner’s sugar
  • 1/2 cup cocoa
  • 1 cup chopped nuts
  • 8 ozs. Velveeta cheese (original flavor, of course)
  • 2 sticks margarine (1 cup)
  • 2 tsps. vanilla extract

In a large mixing bowl, combine thoroughly, the confectioner’s sugar, cocoa and chopped nuts. Butter a 13″ x 9″ pan and set aside. In a small mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Microwave on High for 4 minutes or until melted, stirring every minute. Remove from microwave and pour into sugar mixture and stir until completely combined (you may have to use your hands to complete mixing if the mixture cools too quickly). Spread into the prepared pan and refrigerate until set. Cut into squares. Enjoy!

This is not a joke. The fudge is light and creamy and very good. You do not taste the cheese. It can be frozen.

Welcome to my online home since 2004. I blog a bit about my life as it happens, my work as I am permitted, and occasional throwback entries. When I'm not writing new posts, I actively curate this blog, improving the wording or adding new media to old posts, and finally finishing old drafts I've left sitting for years. It is not my intention to be a source of news or content. I don’t have anything to sell, and I’m not trying to get likes/shares/follows. This site is an autobiographical effort - imperfections and all. My life, remembered in my words, my way.
