My collie Dozer is spending lots of time either on the AC floor vent or under the ceiling fan (which is set on the highest speed) and I’m making another batch of this Two-Ingredient Freezer Fudge recipe. That should tell you that it’s already plenty hot here in Virginia.
Summer doesn’t officially start until Tuesday, June 21, this year but trust me, it’s happening here at my house! I guess that’s why the meteorologists are always reminding us that meteorological seasons and astronomical seasons are slightly different.

Anyway, I think we can all agree that chilled treats are a must during hot weather, whether it’s summer—astronomical or meteorological—or not. While we don’t usually think of fudge in the chilled treat category, we should when we’re talking about freezer fudge.
