Vanilla Fudge

Rob and I were in a shop recently and while in the queue to pay for our milk and bread Rob spotted fudge among the sweets. We didn't get any but the night before seeing it I had been reading this month's Easy Food Magazine which had a recipe for fudge in it (which I had bookmarked), so it only seemed right to make some seeing as he was eying it up. The vanilla wasn't part of the original recipe but I wanted to add it in

This was so tasty, Rob was so excited when I told him I was making it.
