Fastest Easiest Fudge in the World

Got the RV back. It needs a new roof. That will cost about 13 THOUSAND dollars. I don't have that kind of money. I spent 2 days in a daze and crying. Mostly mad at myself. Beth if it looks to good to be true....it's too good to be true. I know I wasn't meant to have nice things so why why why did I buy it?

 

If it was in good shape I would have gotten a great deal, we paid 25 K and they in GOOD shape sell for 39 K. I put 800 in for the fuel pump, 200 for a new tire, and 1 K that the insurance wouldn't cover. We were shopping for several months and looked at some real DEATH TRAPS so when we saw this one, all clean with low miles and well taken care of we jumped on it. We shouldn't have. With the damage it's worth a lot (LOT) less than what we paid. That lil voice was telling me "if it looks too good to be true, it is...." did I listen? Noooooo..............

 

The folks that sold it to the dealer knew of the leaks though since when the awning came off we found soft putty over the rusted screws. They also got some of the paint on sealent and covered up the damage on the roof, you can see where they dripped now that we know what we are looking for.  So for now we will park it, winterize it and cover it.

 

I'd love to sell it but it’s worthless not fixed as the roof is now starting to mold with the damp wood inside. I've heard about the sealent you can paint on but this has a lot of damage across the top of the roof and the wood is starting to swell, which is stretching (and will rip) the outer covering (called a skin)  I’m heartbroken and totally freaking out. So when I’m not crying over the high hopes and dreams I had if enjoying it I’m mentally beating myself up for buying the  *&^%$ thing in the first place. I KNEW it was too good to be true. And it was. So I made myself sit down before I got myself worked up into a coma and make a list of things I can be grateful for like how when the tire blew nobody got hurt. That I have a great hubby, great kids and parents that are still alive and love me. I mean that’s what Christmas is all about right? I sat down today and wrote Father a mushy letter about what a great dad he was. It made me feel better....for a whole 15 mins. He'll proably call me and ask if I'm dying or something. If so I'll just send him some fudge. Have fun with the recipe!

 

Fastest Easiest Fudge in the World

 

Be sure to use sweetened condensed milk in this recipe, not evaporated milk - that's a common mistake. The darn cans are the same size and shape- really is that smart? One should come in a square box or something. I mean really.

 

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 2 minutes

Total Time: 7 minutes

Yield: Makes about 2 pounds candy

Ingredients:

• 1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 1 tablespoon cream
• 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips, if desired

Preparation:

Place chips and milk in microwave safe bowl. (You can use just the one package of semisweet chocolate chips, or add the milk chocolate chips for a fudge that is slightly sweeter and creamier.)   Microwave on medium power for 2-3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Microwave, stirring at 1 minutes intervals, until chips are melted and mixture is smooth and thick. (You can also melt the chips and milk in a heavy saucepan over low heat.) Stir in butter and cream until combined.   Pour into greased 8 inch square pan and cool.   You can add just about anything to this easy recipe. Stir in a cup of chopped nuts, add a cup of marshmallows after the cooking time is done, stir in chopped dried fruit or some white chocolate chips.
