I am totally obsessed with holiday recipes that feature cranberries. I just really love the flavor that they add to Christmas treats like breads and cookies, so imagine my delight when I realized how great dried fruit (in this case dried cranberries and cherries) could taste in a fudge recipe!
This lovely white Christmas fudge is one of my favorite holiday dessert recipes!

I mean, why not try a holiday fudge recipe that’s a little different this year?
Traditional chocolate fudge recipes are always well-loved, but this white Christmas fudge has something special.
Plus, it’s just so very pretty!

I would never have thought to add dried fruit to a fudge recipe, and the first time I tried this white Christmas fudge recipe I was a little skeptical. I just wasn’t sure if I would like this combination of ingredients!

After taking one bite I was a fast fan of this sweet and delicious Christmas fudge. The dried fruit and nuts give it a wonderful texture and a bit of a crunch. Pair that with the creamy flavor of white chocolate and you have a really wonderful little holiday dessert that will impress your guests throughout the season.
