I found this recipe years ago, and when I went back to visit the original source, it was gone. But fortunately, I had jotted down the ingredients and was able to find my scratchings on a napkin. See? Hoarding isn't always a bad thing!
Whiskey Chocolate Peanut Fudge
6 T whiskey
1 1/4 c powdered sugar
1 1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1 c dry roasted peanuts
Prepare an 8x8 glass pan with cooking spray and parchment paper. Melt the chips on medium power in the microwave, stirring after each minute for a total of 3 minutes. Your mileage may vary in your microwave. Chop the peanuts coarsely and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the whiskey and sugar. Add the peanuts and chocolate and stir well. Pour into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula through another piece of parchment paper. Place in fridge for a few hours. Remove fudge from the pan, cut and scarf down.
Hi Cyndi. Your fudge in one word; "Yum!". I used to work as non-sworn for law enforcement so I know the challenges if public safety. Great job to the Boston and surrounding area law enforcement. And. My wide and I had a chance to go to Italy in 2011. That was time travel. The margherita pizza, the beer and the pasta were extradonaire. Ciao!
ReplyDeleteCyndi... the only thing I would suggest is that you use pecans... and a good bourbon. You'd be right here in Kentucky at Derby time with those ingredients (would remind you of our famous Derby Pie, which I have a killer recipe for if you'd ever like it)!
ReplyDeleteDid you really have it on a napkin? You crack me up! This looks like an easy recipe. I'd never have thought of putting booze in fudge. LOL
ReplyDeleteOn a napkin? Yup. It was pretty :-)
ReplyDeleteSound delicious and I just might try it if I can sneak some of my hubby's whiskey away from him!
