Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 c semi sweet chocolate chips
1/3 c each - chopped nuts & chopped, maraschino cherries - drained well
1/3 c evaporated milk
1 1/2 c confectioners' sugar
flaked coconut & chopped nuts for rolling - i use both

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium saucepan, over low heat - melt chocolate in the milk.
  • 2. Once melted add the confectioners' sugar and whisk until smooth. Fold in the cherries and nuts. Chill until cool enough to roll in balls, not so stiff that the coconut and nuts won't stick. You want them a little sticky.
  • 3. Have nuts and coconut ready. I spread each on paper plates. I use about a 1 inch cookie scoop for the size of the balls. Roll into balls and roll in nuts or coconut or both. Chill well. When not eating, keep them chilled as well.

CHOCOLATE CHERRY NUT FUDGE



Chocolate Cherry Nut Fudge image

This is a favorite around the Holidays. I'm not sure where the recipe came from - off of the can of sweetened condensed milk or the chocolate chips (for the basic Fudge). I just know it is so easy to make! And the addition of the cherries and nuts makes it oh so delicious!

1 can(s) sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
dash of salt
1 c pecans, chopped

note: important...you want to drain off as much juice as possible. placing the cherries on paper towels helps to pull out more juice.

  • 1. Line an 8 or 9 onch square pan with aluminum foil. This makes it easier to take the fudge out of the pan.
