Creamy Double Decker Fudge

Last year we took this home made fudge to our family Christmas party.
It was a huge hit.  My husband loves it because it tastes like Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.
I love it because it’s easy to make!
Simple 1-2-3 is a great Holiday cookbook that is full of beautiful pictures – and isn’t that what makes a good cookbook?
It even has pictures of the ingredients you need to buy.  I love it.
Here is a scan of this fudge recipe so you can see what I mean..
Here’s the recipe:
