A Very Sweet Christmas: Peppermint Fudge
Christmas is the time of giving, and why not give away this delicious peppermint fudge as a memorable homemade gift?
We just love fudge, and what’s great about it is that it’s so easy to make! You only need a few ingredients, and it can keep for a while, up to three weeks! There are so many combinations of fudge, but we love the pink and white of this one. Make a few batches for your family, because we’re sure they’ll love it! This fudge also makes a great homemade gift.
