Now here’s a recipe I might be able to prepare in the temporary kitchen on the hot plate.
“Temporary” because I am currently in the middle of a kitchen renovation. Really, what we have been engaging in is glorified camping cooking because a lot of paper products are involved and there’s not a great place to wash dishes.
Needless to say there’s hasn’t been much baking going on. But we did manage to bake (in the small convection oven) the homemade cookie dough stash in the freezer. I do realize this recipe is not baked, but it is a bar/cookie, right? So by association I consider it a “baked” good!
Another bonus is that this recipe has no eggs, so my egg allergy kid will be free to indulge.
I hope you enjoy it too. -alyce eyster

- ½ cup walnuts, toasted & chopped
- Butter a 9-inch square baking pan.
- In a large saucepan, combine all of the ingredients except the vanilla and walnuts. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and walnuts.
- Beat the mixture with a wooden spoon for 7 minutes until it thickens.
- Quickly spread the fudge into the prepared pan and cool until completely hardened. Cut into 1½ inch squares.
Bet those nutty fudge squares would go perfectly with a cup of black coffee.

Gosh, I’m impressed that anything is coming out of your kitchen during your renovation…especially something so yummy and fudgy!!! These squares look DELISH!!!
uuu i love walnut and to have that in fudge .. yummy š When is your kitchen construction getting over ? It must be tough without that.
These sound delicious! I love walnuts combined with chocolate. The texture looks amazing too!
Well, I don’t envy you the loss of a kitchen, but at least you have this yummy fudge and when your kitchen is done, it will be wonderful!
