Gumdrop Fudge....oh goodness!

Oh goodness is an understatement! This fudge is heavenly! I found this recipe on the Taste of Home site.

1 1/2 lbs of white candy coating, coarsely chopped
1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
1/8 teaspoon of salt
1-1/2 teaspoon of vanilla
1-1/2 cups chopped gumdrops(I couldn't find gumdrops but did find them in gumdrop slices-not the spice drops either)

Line a 9 inch square pan (I used a 11 x 7 pyrex), set aside
Melt candy coating, milk and salt over low heat until coating is melted. Remove from the heat; stir in the vanilla and gumdrops. (Gumdrop hint---run your knife of scissors under hot water to cut your gumdrops, makes them easier to cut and not stick to everything)

Spread into the prepared pan, cover and refrigerate until firm. Using foil, remove fudge from the pan; cut into 1-inch squares. Store at room temperature. Yields about 3 lbs.
