Creamy Caramel Fudge Squares Recipe !!

Instructions:

Add Vanilla and Nuts: Take the mixture off the heat, and once it has cooled down a little, add the vanilla and nuts to it (if using).

Wait for the mixture to settle in the prepared pan before leveling its top with a spatula.

Let it sit out on a counter for 2 hours or place it in a fridge for a much faster time span.

Cut Into Squares: Fudge can be served well after it has been removed from the freezer and cooled down. Once the connections have been formed, cut the fudges into pieces that are square in shape.
