Mine also didn't turn out. I think it was the electric mixer stage and feel it would have been better to do it by hand. It was crumbly like a very dry cookie dough. Tasted good but neded up throwing it in the bin. Will try a different recipe next time.

Wonderful, creamy and delicious penuche fudge. Thanks for posting this great recipe. Penuche is my favorite fudge and I used to make it with a friend of mine but lost the recipe we used. I am so glad to finally find this recipe to make as a special treat. YUM!

This recipe was WONDERFUL!! The first time I made it, it was great. The only change I made, was I used salted butter instead of unsalted, because that is what I had. I will definately be using this recipe again.

I'm sorry but this fudge did not turn out as good as I'd expected it to. I had alot of problem in step 5. On adding the powdered sugar, the fudge did not turn thick and smooth. Instead, it was dry and not of the consistency of fudge at all. What I had in my mixing bowl, were tiny round balls of the mixture of butter-milk-brown sugar and salt(that had been cooked until the soft ball stage). I thought that the amount of butter was less, and added 3/4 cup(melted) more. But, when I tried mixing it with the electric mixer, it was still no use. Then, I tried mixing it with a spoon and it was somewhat better. But still, it hasn't come out upto the mark. Taste-wise it is nice. But, still I wish I knew where the mistake lies in the recipe.
