Snickerdoodles are my favorite cookie, so when I saw Snickerdoodle Fudge at a fudge shop I had to try it. I was disappointed in the store-bought fudge and decided that I needed to try my hand at creating a Homemade Snickerdoodle Fudge Recipe.
The first time I made Snickerdoodle Fudge my family thought it was great, but I didn't think it had enough cinnamon. I also though it had too much vanilla. At first they protested when I said I was going to try again, but they quickly stopped when they realized I would be making more fudge for them to try. We all agreed that the second batch of Snickerdoodle Fudge was the bomb.
This is a cinnamon fudge topped with cinnamon sugar. The cinnamon sugar adheres best if you sprinkle it over the fudge before it sets. If you scrape any of the topping off while cutting it, you can sprinkle a lit more on before serving it.
When making fudge, I use a candy thermometer. It makes it so much easier to determine when the mixture is at soft-ball stage.

Your ingredient list and directions aren’t the same. Ingredients call for 2C sugar but directions call for 2 1/2 C, can you tell me which one it is? Thanks.

It is 2 cups of fudge. Thanks for catching that. I will edit the directions.
Cherry Hammond says
So is it 2 teaspoons of cinnamon or 1 1/2 teaspoons
Alea Milham says
2 teaspoons of cinnamon inside the fudge. 1 1/2 teaspoons mixed with sugar to make the topping.
