Brandy Cherry Fudge

 
This is for adults only because of the brandy but, believe me, you’re not going to want to share anyway. The combination of brandy, cherries, and chocolate is absolute heaven! It is dense, creamy, delicious, and perfect for the holiday season. It would make a fabulous host or hostess gift if you can bear to part with it.
Brandy Cherry Fudge 

1 3-oz. pkg. Melissa's Dried Tart Cherries

 2 T. brandy 

1 14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk 

2½ c. semisweet chocolate chips

 ¼ c. slivered almonds

Line an 8" x 8" pan with foil, allowing a 2" tail on either end for easy lifting.

 Soak cherries in brandy for 30 minutes.

In a large microwave-safe bowl combine sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips. Microwave on high for 1½ minutes. Remove and stir until smooth. Stir in almonds and cherries in brandy.

Pour into pan and spread evenly.  Cover and refrigerate until firm, 1½ - 2 hours. Remove from pan, slice into 1" squares and serve.

  2. OOooh I have plans to make fudge for gifts this year and soaking the fruit in brandy sounds all kinds of wonderful! Might need to visit the Candy Store for some brandy.

  3. Love the sound and look of your fudge! I love dried cherries (and non-dried ones too!), and the brandy is sitting in my cabinet just waiting for me to use it in this!
