Aunt Dottie’s Fudge

Introduction

Another Fall and Winter favorite! This is a Charlestonian tradition from my mom’s Aunt Dottie. Honestly, couldn’t tell you who she was, but she must have been special to have her name attached to a delicious dessert 😉 Fudge is perfect snack or dessert for all holiday occasions. Simple and full of flavor, you can’t beat it. Pairs perfectly with your favorite sweater and a warm cup of coffee. Comment down below what you think!
