Welcome to the Freaky Friday Virtual Holiday Cookie Exchange! 12 bloggers got together, we were secretly assigned another blog to select a Christmas cookie/treat from. This was sooo much fun! We are all finding out the same time as you, who was assigned to each other, and to ourselves! Be sure to check out the links at the bottom of the page, and find out what recipes everyone else found for their new holiday treats!
I was so excited when I was assigned to An Affair from the Heart. Michaela has so many amazing recipes. Be sure to go over to her blog and check them out. You really will be pinning up a storm once you see all her fantastic recipes! I was torn between Double Chocolate Peppermint Puppy Chow, and then I was drooling over the Rainbow Cookies! But, once I saw her Eggnog Fudge, I knew what I had to do! Eggnog Fudge it was.
I haven't had Eggnog in years. Seriously, years. Not since I used to make it for my dad when I was just a wee little one, and using the recipe in my first ever cookbook. I have missed this flavor, and am so inspired now to try more recipes with Eggnog.
This Eggnog Fudge, is my new favorite fudge! And, I am kinda surprised at that, because I am not a huge white chocolate fan, but the Eggnog, the white chocolate, the nutmeg.... Everything blends together so beautifully, that you just need to make this fudge for your friends and family!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great fun festive recipe!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely adore fudge, and this one is so festive! How fun :)
ReplyDeleteFudge and egg nog are two iconic Christmas time foods, I think. I bought a half gallon of egg nog because I wanted some for a glaze. I used a couple of tablespoons and my husband had the rest gone within 3 days!! I should make this for him!
ReplyDeleteThis looks super delicious! I love egg nog, will definitely have to try this recipe!
ReplyDeletei see the words marshmallow fluff and i'm in! we're big eggnog fans over here and would undoubtedly eat every piece of this before it could be given away!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI think having a different flavor of fudge is a great idea. Atticus makes chocolate mint fudge every year, it is wonderful. I will have to have him help me make this. :-) Thank You!
I haven't had eggnog in years, but I think it's time to try it again! This fudge looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful :) I tend to like anything eggnog flavored so def. pinning this one.
