WHITE CHOCOLATE COFFEE FUDGE

During the Christmas season, it's always fun to find that unusual goodie to make that not everyone else makes. I absolutely love white chocolate, coffee, and fudge, so imagine my delight when I saw this recipe that combines all three!




It's super easy to make. Sometimes the first bite gets you, but it is SO good. Enjoy!












White Chocolate Coffee Fudge




2 cups sugar


2/3 cup evaporated milk


1/2 cup butter or margarine


12 large marshmallows


1 Tablespoon instant coffee granules


Pinch of salt


1 - 6-oz package white chocolate-flavored baking bar, chopped (I use Baker's)


1 cup chopped pecans


1 teaspoon vanilla extract




Combine sugar, evaporated milk, and next 4 ingredients in a large saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil.




Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes; remove from heat.




Add baking bar and remaining ingredients; stir until chocolate melts. Spoon into a buttered 8-inch square pan, spreading evenly. Cool and cut into squares.




Yield: 2 pounds




Recipe from: old magazine




Notes: I actually use decaf instant coffee. This candy is very rich, so we usually cut into small squares.
