Ingredients:
To make the perfect Christmas fudge, you will need the following ingredients:

¾ cups of unsalted butter
⅔ cups of heavy cream
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 teaspoon of salt
2 cups of semisweet chocolate chips
1 cup of white chocolate chips

Red and green food coloring
Step-by-Step Instructions
In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and heavy cream over medium heat. Stir until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once boiling, continue stirring and let the mixture cook for 4 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat, and stir in the vanilla extract, salt, semisweet chocolate chips, and white chocolate chips until the mixture is smooth.
Divide the mixture in half, and add a few drops of red food coloring to one half and a few drops of green food coloring to the other half.
Pour the red mixture into an 8×8 inch greased baking dish. Then, pour the green mixture on top.
Sprinkle the chopped candy canes over the top of the fudge.
Let the fudge cool for at least 2 hours, or until set.
Once set, cut the fudge into small pieces and serve.
