White Chocolate Fudge

For a delightful difference, you may want to try your hand, and taste-buds, at white chocolate fudge. :)

This particular recipe will provide you with a really creamy and delicious light alternative to traditional chocolate fudge.


You can make your fudge with some nice white chocolate or almond bark if you can find some at your local grocer or specialty store. You can even get some that is a little bit upper class if that is what you are aiming for. 

Otherwise if you are looking for the old faithfuls, like Parve white chocolate bars, Merckens wafers, or Wilbur wafers, you can get them at Candyland Crafts.
