Candy Cane Fudge
Ingredients:
1 package vanilla almond bark
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
1 1/2 cups crushed candy canes
1 dash red or green food coloring
Directions:
Line 2 8 inch square baking pans with aluminum foil, and grease the foil. Combine the vanilla bark and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until almost melted, remove from heat and continue to stir until smooth. When bark is completely melted, stir in the peppermint extract, food coloring, and candy canes. Spread evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan. Chill for 2 hours, then cut into squares. Store in an airtight container. (Use vanilla chips cautiously… I’ve found most doesn’t harden up enough for fudge and makes a mess. Candy wafers from the candymaking aisle might work, though!)
