This recipe is similar to one of my favorite dark fudge recipes. I'll frequently make my white fudge to give as gifts for Christmas and Valentine's Day. It's an interesting contrast to all of the darker candies—and the cream cheese gives it such a nice rich and creamy texture! My husband and I live on the farm where he was born and raised. We have five children, ranging in age from 17 to 7. I enjoy playing the organ, singing, reading, walking and may crafts.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 4 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 12 ounces white baking chocolate
  • 3/4 cup chopped pecans

Directions

  1. In a bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. In a double boiler, melt chocolate. Fold into cream cheese mixture with pecans. Spread into a greased 8-in. square pan. Chill until serving. Cut into squares.
