Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- Don't overbeat the fudge after you add the chocolate chips. Overbeating will make the fudge grainy.
- If you want a smoother fudge, you can strain it through a fine-mesh sieve before pouring it into the pan.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
