How to Make Cranberry Christmas Fudge

  1. Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy lifting.
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the cranberries, sugar, and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the cranberries have burst and the mixture has thickened slightly.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and chocolate chips until smooth.
  5. Pour the cranberry mixture into the chocolate mixture and stir until well combined.
  6. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread evenly.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
  8. Once firm, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
  9. Cut into squares and enjoy!
