Well I'm not made of money but I have (some) time on my hands..I thought I'd share what I'm giving (creating) this Christmas for friends and family.
I found this great (and simple) fudge recipe from Martha Stewart (*with my added tips)
Simple Fudge with Walnuts
Toast Walnuts *A few zaps in the toaster oven (on Med toast) helps with that
Chop Walnuts Coarsely.
*In a 4 quart pot
Measure out 3 cups of Mini Marshmallows
1/2 stick of butter
1 tsp Real Vanilla
1/2 c Heavy Cream
Heat and stir til melted. Once melted add a bag (12 oz) semi sweet chocolates (In my case I used 11.5 oz of Ghiradelli Chocolate chips) plus the walnuts. Scrape into a parchment lined (with overhanging flaps on all four sides) 8x8 pan.
Cool and refrigerate for about 1 day. Once that's chilled just make cuts 6 x 6.
Variations (Instead of Walnuts, Crushed): Peppermint Candies Reisen Candies, other types of nuts or Candied Fruit.
