For the past couple of months, there’s been a package of unopened candy canes sitting in my pantry from the holidays. I don’t want to throw them out, but haven’t the holidays passed?

Actually, my family believes anything mint is ALWAYS in season.

And thankfully Emily Franceschini is saving the day as a guest blogger on Mommy Evolution with her fabulous Candy Cane Fudge recipe.

    1. This has to be one of the simplest fudge recipes ever. Plus this dessert looks so pretty on the plate. Thanks for sharing this one!

    2. This looks wonderful. A couple of questions:
      1. do you stir some of the candy cane pieces into the fudge mixture or are they all on top?
      2. when do you add the vanilla?

    3. I agree with your friend, any time is good for mint! I pinned this to try when I am ever brave enough to make fudge again. Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty. Starting this week the party will be at a new site Hope to see you there.
