Totally decadent! Made this last night and brought it in for my department and everyone is raving over this. Sinful is another popular adjective for this one. Recipe is very dense and packed with flavor. Love the cappuccino flavor...may have to put in some different extracts and different nuts to play around with the flavor in the future (maybe cherry flavoring and toasted almonds? mmmmm). Don't forget to toast the nuts before adding -- makes a world of difference! Great recipe, Leta!

My 14 year old will not stay out of the fudge! lol... I have made fudge for Christmas Presents this year, and out of 10 different kinds, this is by far the families favorite! I added a little bit more Instant Coffee and Cinnamon to mine as I love them both... Needless to say, it was not overpowering, but very robust! Thanks for posting this!

Great Fudge!! Very good flavor and texture, and very easy to make. What can be better than that?! This is my all time favorite now. I added an extra touch - I made a white chocolate drizzle for pouring over the top of the fudge. For a gift, I poured the fudge into a pretty coffee cup and poured the drizzle in a swirl pattern so it looked like a cup of coffee. Made a great presentation :^)
