Gumdrop Fudge

This is the second year I've made this treat for my Christmas treat tray and I made two batches. DOTS has a Christmas version that are just red and green with white tops-flavors are cherry, lime and vanilla. Needless to say, I had to do a "Christmas" flavored one and a regular DOTS flavored one. It is so easy and quite good. It's not too rich and for someone who never really cared for white chocolate, I really enjoy this.



1 1/2 lbs. white chocolate (2-12 oz. pkgs. of white choc. chips)
1 (14 oz.) can sweet condensed milk
1/8 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1 1/2 c. gumdrops, cut in half (2 lg. boxes of DOTS or you can use the spiced gumdrops if you can find them)

1. Line a 9" square pan with foil.
2. In a large saucepan, heat chocolate, milk and salt over low heat until melted. Remove from heat, stir in vanilla and gumdrops.
3. Spread into pan. Cover and refrigerate until firm. Use foil to lift out of pan; cut into 1" squares. Store in airtight container at room temperature.
