I created this after seeing another cranberry fudge recipe that I felt was too prone to fail. This one never fails. I give this as Christmas gifts and everybody loves it.

How To Make cranberry walnut fudge

Step 1

Place the powdered sugar, cocoa, salt, milk and vanilla in a microwavable bowl and stir until mixed evenly together. Place stick of butter on top. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.

Step 2

Beat until smooth. Add nuts and cranberries, pour into a wax paper or saran wrap lined loaf pan (or use a decorative container) and refrigerate for 1-2 hours. Cut into squares. (Store in refrigerator in an air tight container. I use a large zip-lock bag.) Yield: 1 1/3 pounds of Fudge.
