I originally posted this recipe for Easy Microwave Fudge way back in 2007 during my first year of blogging. The photo is the original photo I took for that blog post. Even though it’s a lower resolution due to the cameras from that year I still love the composition with the dark and light on each side and the stacked pieces of fudge. This year I’m making white chocolate with maraschino cherry version, a milk chocolate version, and a peanut butter version. Your family is going to love this recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do each year! Merry Christmas!
