In recent years we have been making the Thompson fudge, but we believe this recipe from Grandma may be nearly as good and is very similar (but also perhaps more reliable, as the Thompson fudge can be temperamental to get it to come out properly):

Grandma’s Fudge

  • 4 ½ c. sugar
  • 1 can carnation milk

Boil for 13 minutes.

Add ½ bag marshmallows.  Stir until mixed.

Add:  12 oz chocolate chips, 1 c. nuts, 8 t. margarine.  Add 2 T. vanilla and/or maple flavoring.  Pour into pan when sticky.

Grandma’s Davinity

  • 3 c. sugar
  • ½ c. kero syrup
  • ½ c. water

Cook for 13 minutes on medium heat.  Beat in 3 egg whites, stirring constantly.  Add vanilla and almond extra.  Drop onto waxed paper in balls.
