This bourbon fudge recipe will definitely turn some heads at the incredible and unique flavor. Normally bourbon is reserved for specific eggnog recipes and for the occasional private investigator in an old noir film. However, when you add a bit of bourbon to your fudge, not only is all of the alcohol cooked out due to its low boiling point. It also adds a smokey and earthy tone to your fudge.
