I like Potatoes iPhone? What’s an iPhone. No mobile phones. Computers were the size of your living room. The milkman still delivered whole milk, cream and maybe butter to your front door every day. The mailman walked his whole route carrying mail in a big leather bag. Girls were required to wear dresses to school and the female teachers too. Male teachers, what few there were, wore sports coats and ties. Homework?!! Are you nuts? Not until 7th grade. Kids were expected to go home, change out of school clothes into play clothes and go outside to play. TV was for parents to watch the news, Dad to watch sports, Saturday cartoons. Everybody on tv smoked. Trash was burned in the backyard in a steel drum. The ash man came when the barrel was full and emptied it. Life was very different then than now. Slower paced. More secure and more predictable. More peaceful. WWll was over. Vietnam Nam had not yet begun. It was a decent time for me growing up, but definitely a different world then.

now combine it with the beef fudge and call it cheeseburger fudge XD

Heard about this fudge ages ago. My mother made great homemade fudge and was always skeptical about how the cheese would change the chocolate fudge flavor. I'm going to try this though. I'm nearly sure in her old recipe box would be a recipe for this that's decades old. ...Thanks for doing this video and reminding me of the recipe. it was an odd one from the era as many recipes were, especially from the 40's through 70's. ...BTW...you do a great job in hosting your show. You'd be a great addition to a network.

Lemme tell ya, as maligned as Velveeta is, it's a miracle food product. I wouldn't use it as like, cheese, but in a cheese sauce, dip, or soup, it stabilizes the real cheese and keeps it from going grainy. It adds that smooth, velveteen mouthfeel, and I am never ashamed to use it in the privacy of my own kitchen.

You're absolutely correct. I'm sure most commercial soups like Broccoli and Cheese, etc, and most cheese based dips and sauces are made from a Velveeta like product. Nachos and cheese are literally chips and melted Velveeta. By itself it's not very useful, but it is a great ingredient for other things. My partner is of an ethnic background that often prides itself on it's macaroni and cheese; making a roux, adding the dairy and various cheeses, etc. for the sauce. She's very discerning about that particular side dish. I grew up on Velveeta mac and cheese. A sauce of sauteed onions, milk, a bit of pepper and Velveeta mixed through pasta. (Breadcrumbs on top and baked a bit, to fancy it up sometimes). There were seldom leftovers. :) I recently made that for her and her eyes lit up at the first bite. She literally squealed with delight after adding a bit of hot sauce. I haven't, yet, had the heart to tell her that it's basically Velveeta over macaroni. LOL.

One minor point of contention: Fudge is supposed to be smooth and creamy, not crumbly and crystalline. If it's crumbly and crystalline the maker didn't heat/cool the fudge well to control sugar crystallization. Good stove-top fudge needs to be beaten til you feel like your arm is going to fall off, and then a bit longer. Now I get this isn't good stove-top fudge.. and it might be perfectly adequate as a last minute novelty.. but I do believe I'll stick with my tried and true recipe :)

velveeta was my favorite as a child, so i'll definitely have to try this. we do have a cheese fudge in my state at a popular cheese haus so i'm wondering if it's similar? either way, it's an awesome combination i'm sure lol

When I was a kid I absolutely adored velveeta. There is nothing like a carefully grilled velveeta sandwich. It also makes the best mac and cheese. When my kids were little I'd add a couple of ounces to their mac and cheese because that's the way I like it. (Cut the milk out completely and add velveeta and a little sour cream and a good amount of pepper.) I eat as healthy as I possibly can now, but I do miss that sometimes. I think when I'm an old woman and get that final diagnosis, I'm going out on a cloud of grilled cheese, peanut butter and jelly, ice cream with hershey's syrup and maraschino cherries, pies, and cinnamon rolls.

Hey Emmy...long time viewer, first time commentor. I've been making this recipe for years...nay, decades...after originally finding the recipe inside a box of Velveeta. I've tweaked a couple things over the years that might help in the making of your next batch. First, you DEFINITELY have to cook all the ingredients in a saucepan. When it's just about ready, it'll look all cottage cheesy like yours did, but cook it longer until the chocolate-cheese mixture gets smooth and the butter separates and rises to the top. This is when it's ready. However, this is also when I go ahead and add the teaspoon of vanilla BEFORE adding it to the powdered sugar. I figure adding liquid to liquid makes it all mix better. Next, if you have a powerful hand mixer, I recommend using that instead of mixing it into the sugar by hand. You'll save your hand, and it'll make the batch a lot smoother, taking away that gritty texture. You'll see and taste the difference. Personally, I don't like nuts in the fudge, so I usually leave it plain. However, a couple years ago I added bacon bits, and I really liked it. It's one of those recipes you can pretty much do what you want. Cheers!

So interesting! Fudge seems to be an easy "target" for these modifications lol. Beef, pinto beans and now Velveeta. Wow. Thanks Emmy! Too bad you couldn't use your homemade chocolate. The most real homemade EVER!🍫

I have never heard of velveta! The concept is so weird and intresting. Apperantly i never really knew what fudge is since i never wouldve though its basically flavured sugar. Amazing informative video as always!

@IQzminus when i was around 12 or so, i went through a phase where i was drinking loads of milk every day. when we visited hk and stayed at my aunt's place, she didn't usually buy milk, so she bought me cartons of uht milk. the taste is really weird, but i quickly got used to it. probably wouldn't drink it now unless i had to, though.

So much stuff sold in the US is labeled REFRIGERATE AFTER OPENING. In Mexico, the same products say "keep in a cool, dry place." In contrast, I think the litigious environment in the US creates these ominous and often bogus commands about refrigeration.

@@microbios8586 thats interesting! i have to wonder if it also might be related to different climates all over the us. i mean cool whip is in a lot of southern recipes because it wont melt like whipped cream would. so perhaps what might be "cool, dry" in one place isnt enough for another. fridges could be more consistent and safe in that scenario.

I recently discovered your videos and am so thankful for your informative recipes and insight.

Hi, culinary student here! Anything with chocolate is probably best to melt in a double boiler on the stove to avoid the chocolate overheating (overheated chocolate will look thick and lumpy, not smooth and shiny)! With a little patience, the chocolate mixture will definitely still get hot enough this way. Also, cocoa powder would actually work great with a recipe like this! Cocoa powder has a much higher ratio of cocoa solids to cocoa butter than baking chocolate. This means that when mixed into the right recipe it will create a much more powerful chocolate flavor!

My first reaction to just the title: VELVEETA barely tastes like cheese.

LOL. Best comment.

I used to make velveeta fudge all the time! Got the recipe from Paula Deen. Was really good just used to pool alot of oil on the top.

You're always entertaining and educational! Keep it up. 😊

I love your retro recipe uploads. Please do more 😇

Please try kombucha making, but I love the burps and the video, would never have thought of using cheese, we don't have that cheese in Australia, but we have something similar 👍🏼👍🏼🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🇭🇲🧀🧀🧀

No one: Emmy: quadrilaterals

Why would anyone give this a thumbs down? I don't understand...even if they don't like velveeta, they still don't have to give a thumbs down...I just love you so much Emmy!! God bless you!!!

I made a blueberry/cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving a few years back, and my nieces have now made it a staple I am required to make every year. I feel like this could be something similar.

Heat up velvets with Rotel and you have cheese dip. My grandmom used to make it for me. When i am really sad, i will make it for myself.

Ellen Ripley - As an American.. yup

This is my son-in-law's favorite. I mix the cocoa with the confectioners sugar, whisk it. Melt the butter and Velveeta thoroughly, add twice as much nuts as the recipe calls for. I found by mixing the cocoa powder with the sugar, then adding the warm butter and Velvetta it worked best for me. I used a jelly roll pan for the full recipe. Last for a very long time in a tin. Doesn't have to be refrigerated. Amazing! ! !

I remember this and other fudge recipes from the 1960's they were good! I liked a similar version that used sour cream in it. It was my favorite at the time. Thanks for this video Emmy!

weirdly this looks very appealing

You are right. Velveeta is expensive these days BUT I must say that this fudge is worth every penny! (Find the recipe for the one that uses cocoa powder and use the stove top it makes a huge difference) This is a favorite and can become a wonderful family tradition to share.

Whenever I think a dessert with cheese sounds weird, I just have to remind myself cheesecake exists. XD

I love this recipe. It's been in my family for over 30 years and making this with my grandmother for the holidays is one of my favorite memories. I made some for my fiance's family for christmas this year.

My grandmother's recipe was different though. 2lb powdered sugar 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 8oz Velveeta 1 cup butter 1 tsp vanilla extract 1/2 cup walnuts or pecans (optional) It's a little softer and creamier then this recipe appears to be. Probably because there's 33% more Velveeta. ❤❤❤

That's an odd recipe, but it looks a lot easier than boiling sugar and condensed milk and a lot safer than pouring that molten mixture over chocolate and Fluff. Burp.
