Chocolate is the universal gift of love; anyone from sweet
grandmothers to lovers give it to show affection. Most people
love the warm feelings they get while eating chocolate because
the serotonin it releases causes a higher heart rate, a phenomenon
similar to kissing. A fudge gift is a good way to get the recipient
in the mood for a romantic evening.
A homemade fudge gift is especially personal and easy. A simple
recipe requires:
•18 oz bag of chocolate chips
•1 Large can evaporated milk
• 4 1/2 cups of sugar
• 2 sticks of butter
• 2 tablespoons of vanilla
For the desired fudge gift, cook the sugar, milk and butter together
on medium heat for 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Then pour the
contents over a bowl of the chocolate chips and beat for 20-30
minutes, or until the glossiness begins to wear off. Pour the
mixture into a greased pan and let it cool.
