This is a favorite around the Holidays. I'm not sure where the recipe came from - off of the can of sweetened condensed milk or the chocolate chips (for the basic Fudge). I just know it is so easy to make! And the addition of the cherries and nuts makes it oh so delicious!

- Use a candy thermometer to reach the correct temperature: The fudge is done when it reaches 234 degrees Fahrenheit (112 degrees Celsius).
- Do not overcook the fudge: Overcooked fudge will be too hard and brittle.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting it: This will help to prevent the fudge from crumbling.
