Reindeer Fudge

How cute are these? I decided it would be fun to make fudge and give them to the girls at tea. I decided to decorate the pieces like Reindeer and LOVE how they came out! I loved them so much that I made the Reindeer Fudge for my co-workers for our offsite tomorrow. Here's how you make them:

Fudge
I adapted this recipe and didn't include any nuts in my fudge because I wanted the fudge to be as smooth as possible to make the Reindeer.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
• 2/3 cup (5 fl.-oz. can) NESTLÉ® CARNATION® Evaporated Milk
• 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups miniature marshmallows
• 1 1/2 cups (9 oz.) NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Line a 9 inch cake pan with foil. Be sure to leave extra foil around the edges to pull the fudge out of the cake pan.
2. Combine sugar, evaporated milk, butter and salt in medium, heavy-duty saucepan. Bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil, stirring constantly, for 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Stir in marshmallows, morsels, nuts and vanilla extract. Stir vigorously for 1 minute or until marshmallows are melted. Pour into prepared baking pan; refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
4. Lift from pan; remove foil. Cut fudge like you were going to cut a pie. I cut 8 triangle pieces.

Making the Reindeer

Supplies:

• Cellophane clear wrap
• Brown pipe cleaners

2. Cut ribbon and tie in a bow around cellophane.
3. Wrap pipe cleaners twice around the base and then bend the ends to create the antlers.
4. Glue on eyes and nose.
