South Georgia Fudge (Aka "chocolate Crack"") Recipe #188032
This is a cooked fudge that I learned to make as a child with my mother. It was our Sunday afternoon tradition. The original recipe came from Mrs. S.R. Dull, who was a food writer for the Atlanta newspapers back in the "40s and 50's. When I first made this for my husband, he became hooked on it and thus his name "Chocolate Crack". Enjoy!

- Once it reaches soft ball stage, remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Add vanilla extract and beat mixture with a spoon until it becomes creamy and loses some of its glossiness.
