I have never made meatloaf EVER! This looked delicious so I thought I would try it out. I followed the recipe as written using bread crumbs and lining the bottom of the loaf pan with bread to absorb the grease. I had to cook it almost an hour and half because it was "loose" and not formed. Eventually I took it out because it was "done" but it never formed into a loaf and it was more like sloppy joes. I am giving this recipe 4 stars because the taste was delicious, but looks count, especially for kids, and mine wouldn't eat it because it didn't "look good."

EASY EASY EASY. I rolled the mixture into balls first, and refrigerated overnight in a tupperware container. The dipping was easy with toothpicks, and the pieces didnt fall off in the chocolate. I would definitely use less frosting next time, just enough to cream the cake, not the whole container. People thought they were candies, but when they bit into them, they were pleasantly surprised, and they disappeared quickly. All I had was yellow cake mix and vanilla frosting this time, but I used red food coloring on half to see how it would look and they came out perfect. I love that everyone posted pics-- it gave me lots of ideas for next time. Thanks!

I have never attempted candy making before, and after reading all the reviews (stir constantly, omit vanilla if using milk chocolate morsels, melt marshmallows first, then bring to a rolling boil, etc etc) the fudge turned out fine, and set quickly-- I was quite proud of myself! I used parchment paper instead of tin foil, and it came out beautifully. It tasted and looked just like just fudge, and although I am easy to please when it comes to chocolate, it seemed like it could have used some additional flavor or punch-- it was a little bland. We did enjoy it, however, and if I make this recipe again, I will use the semisweet morsels and maybe add the orange or raspberry extract as some of you suggested. I am giving this recipe 4 stars for ease and success of directions, but omitting one for taste-- hope this helps.
