1/4 cup Butter (half stick)
2 1/2 cup Sugar
1/3 cup Evaporated Milk (half a small can)
1/3 cup Cranberry Juice Concentrate*
11-12 oz. White Chips (1 package)
7 oz. Marshmallow Creme/Fluff (1 Jar)
1 cup Craisins [optional]
1/2 tsp Orange Extract
Line a 9" x 9" pan with aluminum foil and
set aside. Place white chips, orange extract,
craisins (optional) and marshmallow cream into a
3-quart saucepan (or Pyrex bowl) and set aside.
Heat milk and cranberry juice at Medium setting
until warm then add sugar. Bring to a rolling
boil (Medium-High), stirring constantly with a
wooden spoon. Continue to boil for [8] full
minutes -or- if using a candy thermometer
continue boiling until the boiling temperature
reaches 235?F but do not exceed 9 minutes rolling
boiling total. Remove from heat and add butter.
Stir until dissolved (but no more than 30 seconds).
Pour hot mixture over white chips, orange extract,
and marshmallow cream without scraping the sides
of the hot saucepan. Mix until the chips are
melted. Mix thoroughly and cast into prepared
pan. Cool at room temperature. Chill in refrigerator
prior to cutting. Remove from pan, remove foil,
cut into squares.
*NOTE: Cranberry Juice Concentrate can be found
in fruit juice isle, it comes in a 12 oz can that
looks like a soda can and is reconstituted by
adding water. If you can't find it, you can use
frozen cranberry juice mix -- let it thaw and
use 1/3 cup. Use the rest of the concentrate to
make cranberry juice to drink with the fudge.
