APRICOT WHITE FUDGE
This fudge has become a family favorite because of the luscious blending of flavors. I try to make it for gifts at Christmastime. Use a candy thermometer or the cold-water test to make sure the mixture reaches soft-ball stage; then chill until set. -Debbie Purdue, Freeland, Michigan

APRICOT FUDGE SLICE
Yummy! It's like the nicest slice I've ever made. (I like my biscuits not fully crushed and also caramelized condensed milk is good instead of normal condensed milk if you can get it).
