14-oz. can sweetened condensed milk
12-oz. pkg. bittersweet chocolate chips
1 c. butterscotch chips
1 t. vanilla extract
8-oz. pkg. chopped walnuts
1/2 c. raisins
Garnish: red and green candied cherries

Pour condensed milk into a medium saucepan; set aside. Rinse out empty can; cover can completely with plastic wrap. Place can in the center of a buttered 8" round cake pan; set aside. Add chocolate chips, butterscotch chips and vanilla to condensed milk. Cook and stir over low heat until chocolate melts, about 3 minutes. Stir in nuts and raisins. Scoop warm fudge into prepared cake pan around wrapped can to form a ring or wreath shape, pushing can back into center if it moves. Smooth top of fudge. Decorate fudge wreath with several groups of holly berry sprigs, using halved red cherries for holly berries and quartered green cherries for holly leaves. Chill until firm. Discard can; loosen the sides and bottom of the fudge with a spatula. Wrap in plastic wrap; secure with a bow or ornament, if desired. Makes one wreath, about 2 pounds.
