I get giddy when I first see candy canes hit the shelves. Because fudge. My family’s favorite holiday treat is my white chocolate peppermint fudge. It’s the first thing I make to set the holiday mood. White chocolate fudge swirled with bits of candy canes and topped with more—I make a ton of the stuff not only because my family inhales it, but because it’s the perfect hostess gift. My neighbors love it too! It’s really the best sweet treat of the season. You’ll only need a few ingredients and a microwave. Really, it’s sooooooo easy! So grab some white chocolate chips, peppermint extract, sweetened condensed milk and candy canes. Yep, that’s all. See how easy that was? Now you need to make some more. You’re gonna need it. Trust.
