Last Minute Holiday Goodies - Holiday Fudge





This is fairly simple- takes just over half an hour to make, and I'm guessin it would freeze well. It's quite festive looking and is great for parties.






Cranberry Walnut White Fudge

1 cup Butter plus 2 tsp to grease pan
4 cups Sugar
1 ½ cup Sour Cream
2 pkg (10 to 12 oz) Ghirardhelli White chips (trust me- don't use cheap white chocolate)
2 jars (7 oz) Marshmallow Crème
2 tsp Vanilla
4 cups coarsely chopped Walnuts
2 cups Dried Cranberries, coarsely chopped
3 Tbls Orange peel (or from 2 oranges)



Line 9x13 pan with foil and butter the foil with 2 tsp of Butter , set aside.
In heavy saucepan melt sugar, butter, and sour cream over medium heat. Boil 15-20 minutes, or to soft ball stage. Mix in chocolate chips and marshmallow crème. Remove from heat, add vanilla. Mix till smooth. Add orange peel, craisins and nuts.
Pour into greased pan and cool. Lift fudge from pan on tinfoil. Cut in 1” squares and serve at room temp.
