Five-Minute Fudge Wreath

Yum, Yum!!!

Five-Minute Fudge Wreath

1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate morsels 9 ounces

(3/4 of a 12-ounce bag) butterscotch morsels

1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 (8-ounce) can walnut halves

1/2 cup (a couple of handfuls) currants
8-inch cake pan, lightly greased with softened butter

Candied cherries, red and green, for garnish, optional

Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined. Save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately.

Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts.

The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Sounds yummy to me. I watched her make it. Very easy!

OK, So I Had A Bad Night!

Yep, a bad night. I first woke up very warm.. had to toss all
the covers off until I cooled off. Of course, Tig sleeps with me.. we keep each other warm. LOL So, I tried to go back to sleep, but the computer started creaking like an old house. It was off mind you, had been for several hours. This isn't the first time, it does it often.. lol Next, I did doze off, but was dreaming all sorts of confusing stuff, and I woke up.

Just as I was dozing off again, a train whistle woke me up with a start. Usually that doesn't bother me, but it must be extra clear out, because that bugger was soooo loud! I tried once more to go to sleep, but this time I was so restless that I finally gave up, turned on the tv to watch the 5am news. So here I am.

I AM going to have a good day, I AM!!! LOL

Hugs everyone...

PS... I forgot the car.. a car started up in the neighborhood, and kept the idle on high for awhile. Cute, huh?

Ahhh, to have a cat's life!

My big Tig---relaxing!!
