Candy canes are a quintessential part of the Christmas season. They’ve adorned our trees every year for as long as I can remember. However, come the day after Christmas, they usually end up in the trash. This year, that changes! The day after Christmas is National Candy Cane Day, and at my home, we’re going to whip up some delightful Candy Cane Fudge!
This fudge is incredibly simple and can be made in under 5 minutes, making it a perfect way to utilize those leftover candy canes!
