Wilton's are designed to set up solid for candy making, while traditional chips tend to stay softer once melted.<br />If you do try the recipe with Wiltons I would love to hear how it turns out!

I'm pretty sure I did not over cook it. I used a candy thermometer and took it off the heat immediately. Even trying a bit in a glass of water, it was smooth and perfect. The chocolate went wonky, though, as soon as I added it. It seized and then the whole thing went downhill. Do you cool it at all before you put in the chocolate chips?Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06094660653791208943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458273425604617025.post-53393276079515322282012-11-21T17:13:13.514-07:002012-11-21T17:13:13.514-07:00My fudge won't set!

The first thing that jumped into my mind when ...Hi!<br />The first thing that jumped into my mind when you mentioned the texture of the fudge is it was probably overcooked a bit. When the mix reaches the soft ball stage, it's important to immediately remove it from the heat and stir in the white chocolate chips, and I don't recommend substituting the marshmallow creme for mini marshmallows. I think that may have been a big part of the final texture issues.<br />I hope you will give this recipe another try, because it really is fabulous! <br />I wish you success with your next attempt!<br />AmberAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10147232867204622864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458273425604617025.post-82109765827047425052012-11-02T21:26:56.702-06:002012-11-02T21:26:56.702-06:00Ok so i tried this recipe tonight and i had some p...Ok so i tried this recipe tonight and i had some problems, the taste itself was awesome but it came out kinda grainy/dry it was easy to cut but it crumbles quickly so im trying to figure out out what i can do to make it better, the only thing i did different was i used homemade fresh pumpkin puree and i used mini marshmallows because i didn't have marshmallow creme could that have altered the texture that much? please help :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458273425604617025.post-22568022540141193672012-10-07T17:28:43.041-06:002012-10-07T17:28:43.041-06:00Hi Morgan!

I'm sorry to hear that your fudge didn'...Hi!<br />I'm sorry to hear that your fudge didn't turn out like the photo.<br />A couple of simple tips:<br />Use a clean knife each time you begin a new cut. Always score the fudge before actually cutting through it. <br />I often use unflavored dental floss to cut through the candy if it isn't really thick. <br />Try pouring the fudge into small square containers to set up. It makes cutting the "centers" of the candy easier and more smoothly. <br />And finally, the candy is easier to cut and get smooth edges when it is chilled first (the small trick I used for the photo).<br />Try it again, and don't be discouraged, mine doesn't always turn out beautifully either!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10147232867204622864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458273425604617025.post-23607807302593193552012-09-27T08:59:46.197-06:002012-09-27T08:59:46.197-06:00I love this recipe, it turned out great.
