Can you use another pudding, cannot find Kosto. Thank you.

I looked at a few other variations of this Fannie May fudge and they say no substitutions! So Kosto pudding may be a magical ingredient. I do see some fudges with MY-T-FINE, so you could try that.

 Kim Higgins (Illinois) says:
They really need to remove the fudge recipe with the Kosto pudding. You can no longer buy that brand pudding anywhere. So very sad.

So you would delete this historic recipe rather than find a workable substitution? Not good!
