For as long as I can remember, every Friday after a long week of school I set up a special movie night for the kiddos. It’s a great way to hang out as a family and kick back and relax. These nights I always make a DiGiorno pizza for them and a special little treat for dessert. This week was going to be rocky road fudge, my daughters favorite ice cream.

So I headed to Dollar General to get what I needed since they have great coupons and deals I knew I could find everything I needed in one place.

Then last Friday I decided to surprise them with rocky road fudge for our family movie night. It was SO simple and delicious! The almonds and marshmallows added a little different flair to your ordinary fudge.

Fudge recipes are the simplest desserts to whip up. Plus they are so versatile to suit everyone’s taste buds. My mom used to make so much fudge for the holidays, so I always look for new additions to add into my normal traditional fudge recipes each year. Of course you can make these all year round I just carry over her tradition since she is no longer with us.

Some have a holiday twist or a fun flavor combo the I would have never thought to turn into fudge recipes!

Before fall even hit I was scrambling looking for reasons to put pumpkin in everything. If you know me, you know I am a bit of a pumpkin ~~fan~~ obsessed.

From coffee drinks to soups (~~stay tuned~~ a recipe for pumpkin soup). This delicious pumpkin pie fudge recipe has become a family favorite every year, even the members of the household who are not the pumpkin fans that I am, go crazy for this recipe when it makes its annual appearance. It is very rich, I definitely recommend making your pieces small.

I love making different kinds of fudge for the holidays and this one is a winner for the fall months. Perfect for a Thanksgiving dessert too. It’s simple and aimed to please especially those pumpkin fans like me.
