So I'm doing that holiday baking thing. I'm going to make some(more) of my peanut butter cookies, definitly making my snowball cookies (also known as Russian tea cakes and Mexican wedding cakes). The question here is : should I make fudge too? Some of my Better-Than-Fabulous Bananna Muffins? Oridnary sugar cookies?

Fudge! Make fudge! Now!
This is SO cute! You do a photo shoot of yourself all dressed up in 7" heels and a little maid outfit BAKING!!
This is like a baking fetish thing!
ive done a crap load of baking this year too...but the fudge didnt set right):
it was just choclate mush!
Fudge is Soooo good! Do the fudge!
We want fudge!
Uhh...I don't want to sound like I'm dissing your mad leet cooking skills, but have you made fudge before? That stuff is the most temperamental of confectionary treats you can make. As little as a minute too long on the stove or three degrees too hot or cold and you end up with syrup or basically fudge flavored brown sugar. Which isn't bad tasting, but just not fudge.
Have you made cinnamon candy? It's great!
Is there fudge in Alaska? Frozen fudge? You could make an Igloo made of fudge!!!!
We make fudge. Igloos out of it, however, are bad news. Penguins eat your house and then you're homeless in the winter :(
The closest I've come to screwing up fudge is burning my self when my arm got tired of stirring. I've made chocolate rasberry fudge, peanutbutter, butterscotch (which is awesome when done right). Now taffy is difficult, you get it to hot and you end up with ribbon candy.
I do have a vinyl french maid's outfit...

This could be so close to the perfect fantasy, and yet so close to a slot on Jackass. As I say about a lot of what I do - if you can't be safe, be careful. If you can't be careful, stand near a telephone.
Pull~my~hair - it's all in the stirring, or lack of it (going by the concentration my better half puts into it, it also seems to be some kind of religion). Stir like fook while it's heating, then stop at *exxactly* the right monent or it.. well you know what you'll end up with.
For fudge that's gone all mushily wrong - throw it into muffin mix just before you dollop it into the trays, and you'll get something to die for. Also worth following the First Rule of Cooking for Men - if you haven't added alcohol, it's not done yet. That rule applies to the food, and the chef.
