White Chocolate Walnut Fudge

Submitted by CoffeeB

"From a Gooseberry Patch cookbook originally. I love the white color of this fudge done up. So different from the standard chocolate. You could also add chopped up maraschino cherries for a festive look."

Absolutly LOVE this recipe - I was so pleased, I have a real problem with making fudge - it usually comes out grainy and dry or else soft and runny. But following these directions it was perfect and taste wonderful and creamy. I used a candy thermomter and heated to the soft ball stage, added the walnuts and it was perfect. A nice change from chocolate fudge and really lookes pretty on my candy tray. Thanks so much for posting this great recipe.

Delicious, creamy and rich. Make sure you use REAL white chocolate and not "white baking chips" or "baking bars." Real white chocolate has cocoa butter, which is key to the flavor.

WOW! This was so easy and delicious! I doubled and used only dried cranberries. It looks so festive for the holidays! YUM! Thanks so much!

This fudge is rich, decadent and delicious! It was so simple and turned out so creamy. I did put mine in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes after letting it cool at room temperature. It has great consistency and I know those who try it will love it! I used both chopped pecans and walnuts. This is better than you could buy in an fudge shop. Thanks for sharing!
