Need a fudge recipe that's NOT creamy!

[tvguy]

And I make it that way on purpose! I won't touch creamy fudge, but mmmmm...love the textured stuff

Gritty fudge doesn't bother me, but my wife is a Diva about that.

I don't like gritty fudge; however, I like crumbly fudge. I love sucre a la crème (similar to Scottish tablet), which is similar to a brown sugar fudge but drier and more brittle.

I was about to suggest that OP try making Scottish tablet! Yum!

I want creamy fudge, but has to have texture of something IN it. Walnuts being my favorite addition! Crumbly fudge just makes me sad

I always make the fudge on the back of the Marshmallow Fluff jar. It's just like in fudge shops. It so easy to make.

If you live at altitude, remember to adjust your cooking temp! Trust me, I've learned the hard way.

That's it! That's the texture I love

This is budget related because I don't want to waste money making fudge no one will eat! I made the typical recipe from carnation milk can, but DH just told me that he loves the kind you buy in candy shops or Bucky's truck stop...the large logs that you can slice and is slightly hard/grainy...is there a recipe, or does this consistency come from sitting out? Help! (mine is usually very soft and creamy) Thanks in advance!

Steer clear of any recipes using marshmallows or marshmallow fluff if you don't want creamy fudge. Those recipes were developed to be "no-fail" recipes, because traditional fudge recipes require a bit of skill to get right.

I for one prefer creamy fudge, but that's not what my mother made. She also made fudge icing that would literally set up hard on the cake and we could peel it off.
