This was the easiest fudge I have ever made & by far the best. The cinnamon is a wonderful addition & goes well with marshmallow. I have ditched my Joy of Cooking recipe & candy thermometer for this one! For more kick I doubled the pepper which I substituted with chipotle. Nice & hot! (I also omitted the abuelita.) Thanks for posting this!
