Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Level: Easy
Serves: 6 to 8 servings
1/2 pound Velveeta cheese, sliced
1 cup butter
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup chopped nuts, pecans, walnuts
2 (16-oz) boxes confectioners' (powdered) sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder
Spray lightly the bottom of a 9" by 2" square pan with a nonstick spray.
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the cheese and butter together, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and add the vanilla and nuts.
In a large bowl sift together the sugar and cocoa. Pour the cheese mixture into the sugar and cocoa mixture and stir until completely mixed. The candy will be very stiff.
Using your hands, remove candy from bowl and press evenly and firmly into pan. Because of the amount of butter in this recipe, pat the top of the candy with a paper towel to remove the excess oil.* Place pan in refrigerator until candy is firm.
To serve candy, cut into squares.
*I'm sorry but is that not disgusting??!!!

Seriously -- TRY it! make half a batch. I said the exact same thing.
Someone tried to get me to make it for years - even would try to get me to taste it. Not Me, I said - I don't eat faux cheese. Then someone *else* gave me some fudge as a gift. Best fudge I ever ate, hands down. Yep. Plastic cheese fudge. They even sell it in Wisc. cheese shops as "chocolate cheese".
