I think just about
EVERYONE
associates
FUDGE
with Christmas.
I know that I always
make several batches
of all different types
of fudge during the
Holiday Season.
I give them to my
enjoy.
Anyway,
I have a recipe for
LEMON FUDGE
for Spring.
If you love lemon this is for you!
I'm not sure where it came
from but I have used it for
several years.
It was probably the old
Taste Of Home magazine.
It is so good that you
will be licking the pan.
You will bow down
before me because
I am
The Fudge Queen.
This is NOT a recipe
for those
weak-willed people
that cannot refrain from
eating the whole pan...
Nosirreeee..
Here you go-
LEMON FUDGE
1/2 cup REAL butter (no oleo/margarine)
One 4.5 oz cook & serve lemon pudding
(do not use instant pudding)
1/2 cup milk
3-3/4 cups confectioner's sugar
1 teaspoon lemon extract
Line a 9" square pan with foil
bringing it up the sides.
Use butter and heavily butter the foil
In large saucepan combine:
Pudding mix
Milk
Butter
Cook and stir over medium heat
until mixture has thickened.
Remove from heat.
Beat in confectionery sugar & lemon extract.
Pour into buttered pan and refrigerate.
Use tinfoil to lift fudge out of pan.
Cut into squares and store in fridge.
Serve to family and friends
Trust me-
You will have a new
Easter candy tradition.
THIS IS SOOOO GOOD!!!!
Oleo, what on Earth is that?
ReplyDeleteYum, yum and yum!! I was just craving lemon bars but this looks like a step up. Thank you Oh Fudge Queen!
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of lemon fudge before and man oh man, that sounds delicious! If it weren't for the 4 cups of confectioner's sugar, I'd make a batch! Alas, too much sugar for me.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy. I have never heard of lemon fudge. Thanks for sharing. We love lemon, so this is perfect. Happy Sunday. xoxo
ReplyDeleteLemon is a taste of Spring. I've never had Lemon Fudge before, but it does sound good. It would make for a good treat in the summer too!
ReplyDeleteLooks and sounds good. I am sure I would like it, I tend toward lemon. Hope you are warm and staying safe up that way. Cool in Florida today. Sending good thoughts and love your way. ;-)
ReplyDeletelooks delish, wish I could eat it.. I love lemon anything
ReplyDeleteI am not a big lemon fan but this sounds pretty delish. I like lemon bars so I might just like this fudge.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday. Have a great new week. xoxo Kris
I love fudge, I can't resist buying some when we holiday in Cornwall. They sell it everywhere there.
ReplyDeleteNever heard of lemon fudge but it sure sounds good.
ReplyDeleteI haven't made fudge for some years. Might have to try this one!
ReplyDeleteBrenda
That does look delicious!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds delicious! Thank you for the recipe! Hope all is well with you and yours.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds so yummy and I do like Lemon, but I would probably eat it all because some of my family does not like lemon. I am trying again to leave you a comment and I am not a robot. Love you, Shirley
ReplyDeleteOh, this is on my immediate list. I need some good stuff right now.
ReplyDeleteI grew up with butter, we made our own. A few Wisconsin bakers had recipes that absolutely had to be made with oleo. At that time, margarine was not sold, competing with butter. Two ladies sneaked into Canada, bought some margarine there.They were afraid that the border crossing would take the oleo away.
I like Kerry Gold butter.
I LOVE LEMON.. so this is going to be pinned. Thank you for sharing. :-)
ReplyDeleteAll hail the Fudge Queen!! Trust me, I WILL be making this for easter. Copying it NOW!
ReplyDeleteSounds Good, My favorite is the old stand by of "Peanut Butter Fudge" !!! I would try the Lemon Fudge but really like my Lemon dripped on Broiled Haddock, In my Sweet Tea, We had a nice Palm Sunday ! Coffee Hour after Church with 20 people,!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! That lemon fudge looks so good! I love all things lemon! Thank you for sharing the recipe. Hugs and blessings to you sweet lady.

Fudge is certainly a year round thing here in the UK. I can't say I've ever seen a lemon fudge before, but it sounds delightful.
ReplyDeleteLemon Fudge!!! How amazing...just perfect for Spring....thank you for sharing Diana!
ReplyDeleteI am making this fudge!!!-- maybe TODAY!I have an old recipe for key lime fudge and that stuff was addictive--- I bet this lemon will be the same!!!
ReplyDeleteI will HAVE to make it. I hope I can take two oieces and hurry and give it away as quickly as possible.
ReplyDeleteWOW this sounds like a winner!!!! I have copied this recipe and I will be making it ... my desserts for this weekend are lemon so maybe I'll just add the fudge. Lots of celebrating to do! He is Risen! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYum! I hope everyone likes your Lemon Fudge. I hope you have a nice week and a happy Easter Diana.
ReplyDeleteYour PB fudge is so good, I might have to try this, just because I love lemon!
ReplyDeleteOh my - you are definitely the fudge goddess! I have some skinny relatives I need to fatten up for the family photos. Sick of being the short, chubby one :) Pinning this one! xx K
ReplyDeleteAs I was scrolling to type a comment, I had to laugh at Sandi's... oleo (there must be a generation gap here for her to not know the word, oleo)
ReplyDeleteI'd love a piece of your fudge, thank you!!
You are correct, I think of Christmas when I think of fudge but that is silly cause fudge is good anytime!
ReplyDeleteOh my. This sounds so delicious! I love lemon flavoured anything!
ReplyDeleteNo. Way. This sounds amazing and if its anything like your peanut butter fudge . . . well it will be in my kitchen. Once the kitchen remodel is done. If it made it now, it would be crunchy haha . . . and not in a good way!
ReplyDeleteI love anything lemon. These sound great!
ReplyDeleteWell, I've been making chocolate fudge for 30+ years that folks absolutely LOVE! I probably give 50-60lbs away every Christmas. I think I"m going to give this a whirl as I love lemon and this would be a new flair for fudge. Happy Easter to you and yours.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks for sharing this recipe.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Wow...lemon fudge?? I love lemon anything. I need to pass this one along to my little baker and put in an Easter request! Thanks for the fun idea, Diana. Happy Easter!! xo
ReplyDeleteSounds good but I'm allergic to all things dairy so no butter or milk for me.
ReplyDeleteYUM! Funny thing about lemon, I am not a fan but I love lemon pound cake, lemon fudge? I will have to give this a try! Enjoy your day and Easter weekend ahead dear friend, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteDiana this sounds luscious. I am a great fan of lemon and will certainly have to give this one a try. May have a bit of trouble finding non-instant lemon pudding - so will keep my eye out at some of the larger super markets. Hope your Easter is just lovely. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, sounds delightful. You have great commentary with your stories too. How are you my friend? wishing you a blessed Easter and happy weekend.
ReplyDeleteSounds yummy.
ReplyDeleteI love lemon everything, and this sounds delish! Unfortuntely, I fall into the category of "weak willed" when it comes to lemon,and fudge, and, well, pretty much all food!
ReplyDeleteI've copied down the recipe and will try it for sure!!
