One of my favorites. Sometimes you've got to add a little more powdered sugar, because humidity affects this recipe easily, but it's one of been making for years and one that I'll continue to make. Because friends & family constantly request it.

My mother used to make this and she lost the recipe. I was overjoyed to find it here! I just finished making it and towards the end, I had to start giggling - the smell is just like I remember. When I offered a taste to my boyfriend, he said, "I smell cheese (in the house), but I don't taste cheese! It's good!" He also commented that the texture is perfect, and it really is! I only made half the recipe as some other posters said, mainly because I wanted to make sure it came out right but I'm sure I'll be making the other half shortly. Quick, easy and really scrum-diddly-umptious. Yay!

This was a very easy recipe, and the fudge is smooth and creamy. I was worried about tasting the cheese, so I did double the amount of cocoa. I decreased the recipe by 1/2. I changed the order of the directions, too. First I mixed the confectioner's sugar and cocoa until well combined. I used my kitchenaid, but it can also be done by hand with a fork. Then in a medium saucepan, I melted the butter and processed cheese cubes over medium heat. It seems to really separate and get stringy, but that means it's nearly done, just not yet. I reduced the heat to medium-low, and whisked the cheese mixture for a few minutes longer. It eventually became smooth and creamy. Once it did, I used my kitchen-aid dough hook to mix it in with the cocoa and sugar. I mixed it on low speed for a few minutes, until I was certain all the cocoa and sugar were mixed in. The fudge started to look a little glossy. I had lined a 9x13 cake pan with parchment paper (with extra to be able to pull it out of the pan by the paper). I let it sit on my kitchen counter for about 3 hours to cool completely. Then I cut it into 48 squares (about 1 in. x 2 in. in size).

I tried this recipe tonight and LOVED it! I halfed the recipe as suggested, but it was so good I'm almost sorry I did! I would use half of the vanilla that they suggest next time as well. I melted the butter first, and then used Velveta slices which melted together perfectly. I then put it in my food processor and used a dough hook. It came out great!

I have made this for years now. I do half the recipe at a time. If you use the bag powder sugar you will not have to sift it, there is no lumps in the bags. I also mix the dry ingredients and then add the melted to it. I take a sheet of waxed paper and lay it into and up the sides of a 9x13 cake pan. Press the fudge into the pan. When I add walnuts to this I press them onto the top at this time. After it has chilled all you have to do is dump it onto a cutting board and cut into small pieces. I find 1 inch cubes are a perfect size.

Thought I'd try something different. This fudge is pretty good unless it's sitting next to fudge made the old fashioned way as it did at a Christmas party. Nobody went back for seconds.

This is the best fudge that I have ever had. It was also my first fudge I ever made. I did not have any problems with it and did not find it difficult in the slightest.

You do not have to cook this fudge. I have made it for years and you just mix all the ingredients together (they have to be room temperature) and mix it well either with your hands or a machine with a bread hook. You just pat it down into the pan when done. My kids used to love to squish the fudge between their fingers and then lick them off afterwards. My recipe calls for equal amounts of cheese, butter, cocoa, dry milk and powdered sugar to desired consistency. You can't go wrong with this fudge.

This makes a huge amount of very delicious fudge. I wish I had halved the recipe, because it took a very large mixing bowl and quite a while to mix in all that powdered sugar (I actually burned up the motor on my cheap hand mixer) so I recommend a large table mixer with a dough hook. The texture is to die for, though! Definitely worth it, and you can NOT taste the Velveeta.

This recipe didn't go over so well at the family get-together. Even the kids didn't eat it. It was very smooth although rubbery in texture.

I was very skeptical about trying this but found it to interesting to pass up. I made it and tried it myself first and was amazed at how good it was so I took it to my family's get together for Christmas and everyone loved it. I only made 1/2 the recipe and put it in an 8x8 dish - also left out the peanuts. It was the easiest and probably the creamiest fudget I ever made - I'm keeping this one!

i make half-batches of this (with 1tsp vanilla), and i have a few suggestions as well. as another reviewer suggested, i always sift together the powdered sugar and cocoa, then add the cheese mixture to the dry ingredients. i also use 1/2c walnut pieces instead of the peanuts. i spray an 8"x8" or 9"x9" pan with nonstick spray, then press the fudge firmly into it to cool. sometimes, i find it necessary to blot excess butter or grease from the top with paper towels. by the way, i have used lowfat velveeta with no problems! and one last thing: a variation i love is to substitute 1tsp cherry extract for the vanilla (again, in half batches) and 1/2c dried cherries, chopped, for the nuts -- it's always a hit for me!

I followed this recipe to the letter but it failed. It was a big gooey mess. I have eaten this fudge before and it was delicious so perhaps I did something wrong. It is a cold day here in Texas and the pans I used, I sprayed with PAM to keep it from sticking. I left it in the 'frig for 2 hours and it still would not hardened. So back to regular fudge for me.
