This was easy to make and had a unique taste- always a wonderful thing! I dislike peanut butter anything but the cashew flavor, while similar, was delicious. The ONLY thing that was off was the refrigeration time. A minimum of two hours implies it will be fine in two hours. I actually had to refrigerate this for 6 hours before it had set enough to be fudge- a disappointment because I had to serve it while it was still spoon-feed material. Once it hardened though, it was great.
This was a weird combo but my family and friends love all the components so I decided to give it a shot. It’s crazy how well these things go together and it was so easy to make. Definitely will be making again.
ddddd
I would have NEVER thought of making fudge using yams! This was a pleasant surprise! Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
We loved this recipe ! Smooth and creamy and it reminds me of the penuche fudge we had as kids !
