The cravings of the chocoholics on this list inspired me to finally get
this milk-free fudge recipe written down. If anyone tries it and has any
comments I'd be glad to hear them.

Description:
  "This easy-to-make, smooth chocolate fudge uses barely-cooked eggs, so
  does need refrigeration. It will, however, easily satisfy the craving
  many chocoholics have for fudge."

                             Fudge, Milk-Free

Recipe By     :Linda Blanchard
Serving Size  : 81    Preparation Time :0:30

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  8             ounces  semisweet chocolate
  1/2          cup  margarine
  2             eggs
  1             pound  powdered sugar
  1             cup  whole walnuts -- optional

Prepare a 9-inch pan by spreading a thin layer of margarine over the bottom
and sides.

Put the chocolate and margarine in a medium saucepan over low heat, and
stir every minute or two until completely melted and combined, about 10-15
minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool a little.

Beat eggs in a medium-sized mixing bowl; add the powdered sugar and vanilla
and beat again until well mixed and smooth. Pour the chocolate mixture into
the egg mixture and beat again, stopping to scrape down the sides of the
mixing bowl once or twice to ensure the mixture is well-blended. Add nuts
and stir again briefly; pour the fudge into the prepared pan. Refrigerate
at least two hours, until firm. Cut with a wet knife when cool. Store in
refrigerator.

NOTES : You'll need to use either a glass dish or line a metal dish with
waxed paper to prevent the fudge taking on a metallic flavor. Finding
milk-free semisweet chocolate can be a challenge -- either baker's
chocolate or some brands of semisweet chips may be milk-free. We use
Fleishmann's Unsalted stick margarine in this and many other recipes.
