Question! Why margarine and not butter?

I got a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies from a friend. She noted not to substitute butter for margarine because they were much more tasty with margarine. So I think the same applies with this fudge.

MMMM I find it hard to believe that margarine tastes better than butter.

I like both, perhaps in this instance the fudge would not be as rich.
