Cherry Vanilla Fudge Recipe

Christmas might be over but who needs a holiday as an excuse to make this Cherry Vanilla Fudge recipe? Not me. Homemade fudge is perfect any time of the year.

Cherry Vanilla Fudge Recipe

Over the holidays this year, I went a little crazy making homemade fudge.

I made this Red Velvet Fudge and this Gingerbread Fudge recipe. The Red Velvet Fudge recipe was such a hit it made it to my Top 15 Flour On My Face Recipes of 2015 list.

Last year was a slow fudge year because I only made this easy holiday fudge recipe.

Back in 2013, I made this Chocolate Peppermint Holiday Fudge recipe.

Then way back in 2011 I shared this White Chocolate Pumpkin Fudge recipe.

In the post where I shared the White Chocolate Pumpkin Fudge recipe, I have a cute little fudge story I shared. You might want to check it out. Come back and tell me if you have ever done anything like that.

So I decided to save this Cherry Vanilla Fudge recipe for after the holidays. It is an awesome fudge recipe and can be enjoyed any time of the year.

It is rich and creamy just like homemade fudge should be. One of my favorite fudge recipes.
