Personal Notes:
This is an amazing fudge recipe given to me by Altheda Walker-Whitley. Whenever I would think of Fudge I imagined it being very time consuming, but this is easy and PERFECT. This was always a must have and a real crowd pleaser at Christmas time.

Since you are using 2 separate pans, I would always first pour the fudge in one pan before adding any nuts, then mix the nuts into the bowl before pouring remaining into second pan. Because "Some People feel like a Nut, and some people Don't"
