The flavor of this fudge was good but would have been better if the nutmeg was mixed in rather than just sprinkled on top. As a nutmeg lover I definitely upped the nutmeg to more than a pinch- probably to about a quarter teaspoon- even for the sprinkle. I'd use more if I mixed it in the next time I made this. The texture is on the softer crumbly side after a couple of hours in the fridge- I would definitely recommend refrigerating overnight. Consistency is somewhat grainy. Read More

It was delicious but way too sweet for my tastes. It did not last long during our Christmas party - it was a hit. Read More
