Mine came out runny too. Even let it sit all night and it never did garden. Won't use this recipe again...something is missing.
It wasn't boiled long enough then. If it's not cooked to soft ball stage (235F) then it won't set up.

The recipe didn't give a final temp to cook the candy to, so mine ended up being a thick caramel instead of solid candy. I've never made fudge, so I don't know how thick it was supposed to be before pouring it into the pan. I'm sure it won't go to waste, but I'm disappointed that it didn't turn out right.
