Blond Fudge

Butter sides of a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Combine sugar, milk and salt in pan.

Heat and stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a boil.

Cook to soft ball stage, stirring only if necessary.

Remove from heat.

Add butter and cool to lukewarm. Add vanilla. Beat vigorously until mixture begins to hold shape. Add Marshmallow Crème.

Beat until fudge becomes thick and loses its gloss. Quickly stir in cherries and spread in buttered shallow pan or small platter. Score in squares while warm.
