Indulge in candy-shop flavor with these rich swirled squares. For Christmasy color, I add crushed peppermint candies and red food coloring. —Suzette Jury, Keene, California

Just OK - I too used the peppermint frosting to get more mint flavor, and it did taste good. Made it the day before so the flavors could blend. It does get soft very quickly on the buffet table.

I made this fudge and everyone really liked it. The second batch I used a peppermint frosting and kept the peppermint extract at the same amount. It was much more minty and we liked it better. We also used Ande's peppermint crunch baking chips on the top of the fudge. It really turned out fantastic.
