NO!!!! I've never tired it, and I wouldn't recommend it for the first time, but you might try something like a dough hook at a super low speed. For safety reasons you have to remember that the candy is hot enough to cause serious burns. Normally I use a wooden spoon and lots of muscle. You have to incorporate air as the sugars recrystallize. You could put the pan in some cold water to bring down the temperature faster and save some work. Be sure you use a candy thermomerter or get a true "soft ball" stage. If the candy isn't at the right temperature when you start beating you could beat till your arm falls off and it still won't get firm. You can use the flopped fudge for ice cream sauce though.

What does a recipe mean when it says to mix with a beater?

Yes it does mean with an electric mixer. You could do it by hand but it would be way harder to get the required consistency. Not necessarily, to beat the mixture just means to mix it, you could do it with and electric beater, or you could do it by hand with a wooden spoon.


How can you rewrite a chocolate fudge pie recipe for twice as many people using your work?

We don't know your work that you are basing this on, but twice as much of anything is still 2x whatever. So if a recipe calls for 1 cup, it would be two cups. If a recipe says 1/8th tsp, it would become 1/4 tsp. Etc. Just double everything. Be sure to do fractions correctly.
