MRS. FIELDS SUPER FUDGE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300°F and grease an 8x8 baking pan.
• Combine unsweetened chocolate and butter in a medium saucepan and melt over medium low heat, stirring constantly until pieces are almost melted.
• Remove from the heat and stir until smooth.
• In a large bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat eggs until light yellow in color--about 5 minutes.
• Add sugar and blend on low until thoroughly combined.
• Add vanilla and melted chocolate to the egg sugar mixture.
• Blend on low until smooth.
• Add the flour and mix thoroughly.
• Pour batter into greased pan.
• Smooth surface with a spatula, and sprinkle uniformly with chocolate chips.
• Bake on center rack of oven for 45-55 minutes.
• The batter should be set and a toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
• Do not overbake.
• Cool to room temperature.
• Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
• Cut and serve chilled.

FABULOUS FUDGE

Steps:

• Add the condensed milk to a small saucepan. Pour the chips into the pan, give a stir, and make sure that the milk coats all the chips. Add a pinch of salt. Cook over low heat until it's melted and glossy and a looks like a thick, hot fudge.
• Add the vanilla and walnuts, making sure to coat the nuts with the fudge. (I like to make double triple batches of this and freeze the extra.)
• Line the bottom and sides of a 9-inch square baking pan with foil. You want to leave about 4 inches of overhang on the 2 opposite sides. These serve as your handles to remove the fudge from the pan in 1 piece, so make sure that there is enough of the overhang for you to have a solid grip.
• Pour the fudge into the pan and smooth it out, getting it in all the corners. Let the fudge come to room temperature, then put in the fridge for 3 hours or so. This will make it easier to cut.
• Pop out of the pan and cut into little pieces.

MAMIE EISENHOWER'S MILLION DOLLAR FUDGE

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, bring the sugar, salt, butter and evaporated milk to a boil. Boil for 6 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the pecans, marshmallow fluff and chocolate in a large bowl. Pour the boiled syrup over the chocolate mixture. Beat until chocolate is all melted.
• Spray a 15 1/2 by 10 1/2 by 1-inch jelly-roll pan with a nonstick cooking spray and pour fudge into pan. Let harden at room temperature before cutting into 1-inch squares (can be placed in the refrigerator or freezer to speed hardening process).

MRS. HOPPER'S FUDGE

Steps:

• Mix ingredients well.
• Boil until it forms a soft ball when dropped in cold water.
• Remove from heat, set pan in cold water until cool.
• Beat until creamy and flavour as desired.
• Add a bit of butter (or Mrs. Hopper sometimes uses margarine-a piece about the size of a walnut).
• Pour mixture in an 11 x 7 inch pan and cut in squares.
• You may add any of the following for a variation: 3/4 cup peanuts, maple flavouring with chopped walnuts, rum flavouring with cut up raisins (she uses the seedless variety) or 3/4 cup peanut butter.
