Christmas Fudge Recipe
Christmas is the time to celebrate with family and friends. Many people throw a Christmas party after opening Christmas presents in the morning with their children. To make things easier have a potluck instead of cooking everything yourself. Your family and friends will not mind helping out at all. Fudge is a very popular treat to serve at any Christmas Theme Party. The best thing about Christmas fudge is that it makes a great treat plus you can wrap up some to give away to every guest at the party.

Use the following recipe to make Christmas fudge.
2 cups sugar
3/4 cup half-and-half
2 ounces of cut up unsweetened chocolate
1 teaspoon light-colored corn syrup
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
Line a 9x4 bread pan with buttered foil. Make sure that the foil drapes over the side of the loaf pan. Butter the sides of a saucepan and combine the sugar, half-and-half, chocolate, corn syrup, and salt. Cook over medium heat until boiling. Make sure to stir the mixture often. Reduce the heat to medium low and continue to cook until the mixture reaches 236 degrees on a candy thermometer and it reaches to a soft ball state. This should take about 20-25 minutes. Remove from heat and add the butter and vanilla. Do not stir the butter or vanilla into the mixture, let cool without stirring. When the candy thermometer reaches 110 degrees begin to beat the mixture with a wooden spoon until it begins to harden and gets glossy. Spread the fudge into the loaf pan, and let harden. Use the foil to remove the fudge once it is hardened and cut while warm. Store in an airtight container.

Your guests will enjoy this Christmas fudge. The recipe is so simple that you will not need to stress about making sure the fudge is made right.

Everybody loves a Christmas Party. Even though this time of year is a busy one for everyone, having a Christmas Party will be fun and exciting. A well layed out plan is the key to success. Set the party venue with Christmas party supplies for a cool atmosphere themed. Send out your invitations in plenty of time to get back your responses. You could use any symbol of Christmas on these like: poinsettias, Christmas trees, Santa Claus, or decorations.

Some fun games and activities could include: bean bag toss, inflate reindeer toss, and guess the candies in the bowl, word scramble to name a few. Prizes could be any Christmas: a tree decoration, some candy, a wrapped present etc. Add extra menu ideas like a New Years Eve Recipe for more delicious food. Treats around the room at this time of year will include: nuts, candies, cookies, chocolates but the real food will include a Ham or Turkey Dinner with all the trimmings including: stuffing, potatoes and gravy, cranberry sauce, yams, salads, vegetables, and for dessert, pumpkin, apple and various other pies. Other delights that symbolize the Christmas tradition are: plum pudding, fruit cake, and shortbread cookies. Gift exchanging will be the highlight of this party.
