From "Sunday Dinner in the South" by Tammy Algood


Recipe Introduction

"Fudge is a great homemade candy to serve after a heavy meal because a small piece is all that's necessary. And this fudge is deliciously easy to make and is perfect for the holidays."

List of Ingredients

◦  12 (1-ounce) pieces white chocolate
◦  ¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
◦  1 cup coarsely chopped almonds, toasted
◦  ½ cup dried cranberries


Recipe

Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil, making sure the foil extends over the sides of the pan by 2 inches.

Place the chocolate and condensed milk in a glass bowl and microwave on medium power for 3 minutes or until the chocolate is almost melted. Stir until the mixture is smooth and add the almonds and cranberries. Blend well. Spread evenly into the prepared pan. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or until firm.

Lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil edges as a handle.
Cut into squares and serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to 3 weeks.


Makes 48 pieces


Note:
You can substitute chopped dried cherries for the cranberries, if desired.
