Perfect Pineapple Fudge
Let me just start by saying that this may be the best fudge I’ve ever made. Like, WOW. Bryce came back for three more pieces after I let him “taste” it during the photo shoot. Fortunately, this recipe makes two full pounds so there’s plenty to go around. That, coupled with the fact that this fudge is so bright and cheerful, is what makes me think this fudge is going to be a hit this holiday season.
When I think of the holiday season I think sweets and treats and everything else good to eat. Particularly fudge.
I almost called this Pineapple Sherbet Fudge because that’s what it tastes like – pineapple sherbet. This is a cooked fudge meaning you aren’t going to make it in the microwave. Trust me, it’s worth it. Cooked fudge results in a true fudge texture and consistency and a taste and flavor that can’t be beat.
I know many of you get scared off when I ask you to use a candy thermometer, but, trust me, YOU can do this. I have used many candy thermometers. over the years but my favorite is this digital candy thermometer here.
You can set your desired temperature and it will beep at you when it gets close so that you’re ready for the next step. Also? I’ve been using it for a couple years and it’s still 100% accurate – just tested it again this morning 🙂 (It’s the thermometer you see my using in the video down below.)
