Creamy Eggnog Fudge and Christmas at the Caverns in San Antonio

Fudge is at the top of my baking to do list every Christmas season and this year I wanted to make a fudge inspired by a favorite holiday drink: creamy Eggnog! 
This is a throwback post from 2018!
 
We were lucky enough to celebrate Christmas at Natural Bridge Caverns, in the scenic Texas Hill Country. We had the best time going on a hayride, listening to carolers, making s’mores,
exploring the caverns, climbing the tower and zipline and eating delicious fudge! I cannot wait until we can go back to Texas again and visit in the summer!
Get more info about Natural Bridge Caverns here. 
 

The fudge in their store was the best and my favorite flavor was the holiday special: Eggnog!

This recipe is inspired by that treat. I hope you enjoy as much as we did!

Scroll down for the Eggnog Fudge recipe.

 
I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of things to do at the Caverns!
We spent the whole day and had the best time!
 

Hayrides all bundled up.

 

The views can’t be beat!

S’mores for dayyyyyyyys.

My musical baby, Stella Rose, especially loved the singing and dancing carolers.

 

My adventurous husband and brave little girl tried out the kids climbing tower and zipline!

Every fudge you can imagine is available to sample and buy at their shop!

 

We sampled all our favorites.

My little foodies loved them all!

How could you not love this face?!

    Oh wow, now that’s a great way to add a new twist to fudge. My second oldest son loves eggnog. I bet he’d get a kick out of this fudge.
