Cranberry Pistachio Fudge
I have been the WORST blogger the past few weeks and that is completely unacceptable as we cruise into the holiday season. I have just been feeling completely and totally wiped out lately and can’t seem to get my act together.
Today I woke up bound and determined to post at least one of the MANY recipes I have made for you that are specifically for the holidays…this fudge is one of them.
There are times during the holidays when I need something fast. I’m not talking fast like my Peppermint Shortbread Cookies or even fast like my 5 Minute Rocky Road Fudge. I’m talking, I need to have it ready to go NOW.

This fudge is my go-to for situations such as these and my favorite part about it is that it yields just enough for a small group or sweet hostess gift. There’s a lot of different add-ins that you could put in this simple fudge recipe but my favorite is dried cranberries and pistachios. It’s that red and green combo that catches the eye and feels utterly FESTIVE.
The fudge sets up in a loaf pan and it sets up QUICK. Just what you need. I have been known to leave the house with freshly poured fudge and arrive at my destination with a knife and plate in hand, ready to cut the fudge to serve. It’s awesome. You could even pour this into one of the foil pans and wrap a bow around it and give the fudge as a gift – it’s gorgeous!
I know that you’re going to love this fudge as much as I do and find yourself making batch after a batch as the holiday festivities begin. Make sure to try out different variations so you can find YOUR favorite!
Tis the season for fudge! Make sure to try out these holiday favorites:
