Fudge Recipes

Does anyone have a good fudge recipe made the more traditional way? Milk butter cream sugar etc?

I want to make some that doesn't rely on condensed milk and hopefully for a paler colour so it can be coloured green (mint - I'm not just doing it for giggles)

Thanks

For anyone wanting a good recipe for peanut fudge then try this one:
