christmas baking

as christmas draws ever closer, and i realize how close it's getting, it's time to start on the christmas goodies.

fudge, chocolate covered pretzels, danish, caramels, cookies...and anything else i think of.

as things have been a little tighter than normal, i tried substituting in the fudge recipe. i didn't think things through far enough, and the fudge didn't turn out. a 4.4 oz chocolate bar is a lot less than a 12 oz bag of chocolate chips. it tasted ok, but not normal. but it was super greasy, and when you cut it, it all crumbled. the second attempt, i got the correct ingredients, and it finally turned out right. the kids mutilated the fudge, so i can't cut it and put it on plates to give away.
