Brown Sugar Fudge
"A recipe from one of my mom's friends she worked with in food service years ago. I have substituted pecans for walnuts. To make a white coconut fudge, substitute white sugar for the brown and coconut instead of nuts. This fudge is very rich, so cutting into smaller pieces would be advised. Edited to add: An update has been made to the instructions after some confusion with the original. "
