[CHRISTMAS-RECIPE] CRANBERRY FUDGE

CRANBERRY FUDGE

1/4 cup (half a stick) unsalted butter

2&1/2 cups granulated sugar

1/3 cup evaporated milk (approximately half a small can)

1/3 cup cranberry juice concentrate* **

1 package (11 to 12 ounces) white chocolate chips

1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme

1 cup Craisins

1/2 teaspoon orange extract

Line a 9" x 9" pan with aluminum foil and set aside.

Place white chips, orange extract, craisins and marshmallow creme
into a 3-quart saucepan (or Pyrex bowl) and set aside.

Heat milk and cranberry juice at medium heat until warm then add
sugar. Bring to a rolling boil (Medium-High) , stirring constantly
with a wooden spoon. Continue to boil for 8 full minutes -or- if
using a candy thermometer continue boiling until the boiling
temperature reaches 235 degrees F. but do not exceed 9 minutes
rolling boil total. Remove from heat and add butter. Stir until
dissolved (but no more than 30 seconds).

Pour hot mixture over white chips, orange extract and marshmallow
creme without scraping the sides of the hot saucepan.

Mix until the chips are melted.

Mix thoroughly and pour into prepared pan.

Cool at room temperature. Chill in refrigerator prior to cutting.
Remove from pan; remove foil, cut into squares.

***NOTE--Cranberry juice concentrate can be found in fruit juice
aisle. It comes in a 12 ounce can that looks like a soda can and is
reconstituted by adding water. If you can't find it, you can use
frozen cranberry juice mix--let it thaw and use 1/3 cup. Use the rest
of the concentrate to make cranberry juice to drink with the fudge.
