It took approximately 15 to 20 minutes for the pineapple/sugar mixture to reach 234 degrees on my candy thermometer.I added the lemon juice as soon as I took the mixture off the heat(My fault-wasn't reading the directions properly!)and beat it for about 5 to 7 minutes before it started to thicken .Had I read the directions,I could have saved myself all that "beating". Very Good Fudge!! -
I tried this recipe in hopes of a new christmas candy, and was very disappointed when it never firmed up, and I am an experianced baker. -
I have only ever made fudge once before but this recipe tasted great and was easy to follow. Yum! -
Needs to cook a bit longer,than stated-very good
