Dark Chocolate Cherry Fudge

This week I made my first batch of fudge!  My mom and sister have done this for years but I'd only tried one time and it was a mess. . .basically I tried some shortcuts and that batch was a flop.  So after many years I decided to give it a try after finding this recipe from Nestle.  This fudge will be Christmas gifts for the church staff to share during their weekly Wendy's lunch and also I'll take some to my book club this weekend (if I'm not in the hospital having a baby. . . ).
