Cook: 5 min
Yield: 32 servings (2 pounds)

Ingredients

  1. 1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels
  2. 9 ounces (3/4 of a 12-ounce bag) butterscotch morsels
  3. 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  4. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  5. 1 (8-ounce) can walnut halves
  6. 1/2 cup (a couple of handfuls) currants
  7. 8-inch cake pan, lightly greased with softened butter
  8. Candied cherries, red and green, for garnish, optional

Instructions

  1. Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined. Save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately. 
  2. Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts. 
  3. The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with “holly” made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Andrea Coleman
Made this fudge with my nine yr old granddaughter. So easy and fun. We used mini cupcake pans lined with mini paper liners. Them we found it easier to put dollops on parchment paper lined cookie sheets, shaped round and rough up a bit. We decorated some with red and green sparkle gel to look like wreaths and some with Christmas M & Ms. we will put together some plates and deliver to neighbors. Thank you Rachel for this fun and easy recipe !

Super easy and festive. I lightly spray a small Bundt pan with nonstick spray so it doesn’t stick

How do you remove it from the pan? It’s lovely but I don’t want to leave it in the cake pan. Help!

I wish I liked this fudge. It is easy and beautiful. It just doesn’t have a homemade fudge flavor. I’m not rating this because it’s personal tastes-the fudge sets up beautifully-it just doesn’t taste like rich fudge.

I make this every year and someone always asks how to make it. I use marshmallows instead of currents and make a rocky road fudge. Its a huge hit at Christmas time.
