Fudgies, says my friend Cindy Kane, are the most wonderful food in the world. She must really think so, since she's sent me the recipe three times. It is pretty great, though, and not only that — it's also easy enough for children aged eight and up to make for themselves. And, says Cindy, It makes more than you'd think. The only change I've made from her recipe is that I've substituted unsweetened chocolate for cocoa.
Ingredients:
4 cups sugar
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate
1 cup milk
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
a pinch of salt
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1 18-ounce container quick quaker oats
2 teaspoons vanilla
Directions:
1. Bring the sugar, chocolate, milk, butter, and salt to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan, stirring frequently. Let the mixture boil for 2 minutes; take the saucepan off the heat.
2. Stir in the peanut butter, oats, and vanilla. Mix swiftly but well, Cindy says. Drop from a teaspoon onto waxed paper. Let the Fudgies set for at least 1/2 hour before anyone touches them.
