Homemade fudge?

Does anyone have a really nice homemade fudge recipe? I normally buy some at the school xmas fair as it's so delicious but I'd like to put some in hampers this year so would prefer to save money and make my own. I followed a recipe online and it was horrible, really grainy and gross.
Thanks guys

500g Caster Sugar
50g Unsalted Butter
100ml Evaporated Milk
1 tsp Vanilla Extract (not essence)
Tin lined with baking parchment 20cm x 16cm
Method
Put sugar buttre and evaporated milk ito a heavy-based pan and bring to the boil.
Boil this mixture gently stirring occasionally to prevent it sticking.
Carry on till a thermometer reaches 115 Deg C or the mixture's holding shape in water. This should take between 5 and 10 mins
Take the pan off the heat and beat in the vanilla. and continue beating until the fudge becomes thick and creamy - almost grainy - and pour into the lined tin and allow to cool.

Uncooked fudge ....what a good idea, will definitely give it a go
This is a recipe I've used before and everyone like, although I find it too sweet, but then i don't like fudge. I halved the quantities
sift 1lb icing sugar into a large bowl
put 100g/4oz marshmallows into a pan with
2tbsps milk,
4oz butter and a few drops vanilla essence
heat gently, stirring till mix has melted.
pour into the icing sugar, mix till smooth and add a few drops red food colouring
leave to cool, then wrap in clingfilm and put in fridge three hours
sprinkle some icing sugar on work surface and roll out to 5mm
will last a week in an airtight container in fridge
I rolled the mixture into small balls and put into petit four cases also did some with coffee flavour.0 -

^^You can get tiny cake cases from Tesco in the home baking section - they're less than a pound.Cross Stitch Cafe member No. 32012 170-194 2013 195-207.Hello Kitty ballerina 208.AVA 209.OLIVIA 210.ELLA 211.CARLA 212.LOUISE 213.CHARLEY 214.Mother & Child 215.Stop Faffing Completed 2014 216.Stitchers Sampler. 217.Let Them Be Small 218.Keep Calm 219.
