I am on a Valentine’s Kick this year. I was sitting here just minding my own business the other day flipping through a cookbook and it hit me. Well, it didn’t really hit me but I saw this recipe for 2 ingredient fudge. I had never heard of such a thing, but whoever came up with it is pure genius!
I decided I would try to make Strawberry fudge, since strawberries are one of my most favorite things in the world. I love this recipe even more because my dairy free oldest daughter can actually eat it! Not this strawberry variety, but you can mix and match to make whatever flavor you choose.
