Fruit and Nut Chocolate Fudge

I LOVE FUDGE! And I love how easy it is to make and it goes a looooong way with gifts and feeding a crowd! I used to think fruit and nut chocolate was for ‘old people’, but I guess I fall in that boat now as my husband and I really enjoy it!! Chocolate fudge can’t be that bad for you if there is fruit and nuts in it, right???
