Steps:
- Place a heavy pot on the stove and preheat it over low heat. Add chips and milk and stir until chips are melted and milk combined. Save the empty condensed milk can. Stir in vanilla and remove fudge from heat. Add nuts and currants and stir in immediately.
- Cover empty condensed milk can with plastic food wrap and center it in the greased cake pan. Spoon fudge into pan around can, making sure to recenter can if it drifts.
- The fudge will set up almost immediately. Garnish can only be added in the first minute or 2 the fudge is in the pan, so work quickly. Decorate your wreath with "holly" made from cut candied red and green cherries. A wreath left plain can be garnished with a pretty fabric bow when serving. Chill covered in the refrigerator and slice fudge very thin when ready to serve, a little goes a long way.

Steps:
- Grease an 8-inch round cake pan with softened butter. Pour the chocolate and butterscotch chips, condensed milk and vanilla into a medium saucepan. Put the pan on the stove and turn the heat to low. Cover the empty condensed milk can with plastic wrap and put it in the center of the round cake pan. Stir the chips and milk until they melt together, about 3 minutes. Stir in nuts and raisins. Scoop the fudge into the cake pan all around the plastic-covered can in the center to form a wreath or ring shape. Let it be all bumpy on top. Keep pushing the can back to the center if the fudge moves it away from there. Cut the red cherries in half with scissors and the green cherries into quarters. Use the green pieces to make leaves and the red to make holly berries. Decorate the fudge with several groups of holly berry sprigs made from the cherries and garnish with walnuts between the sprigs. Put the fudge in the fridge and chill until firm. Remove the can from the center (can do this before refridgerating, as soon as possible), then loosen the sides and bottom of the fudge with a spatula. Cut the fudge into thin slices to serve. To give the wreath as a gift-wrap in cellophane and secure with a bow or ornament. Variations: White Chocolate Wreath with Pistachio and Cranberry Substitute the chocolate chips with white chocolate chips, 1 1/2 ounce bag plus 1 cup. Substitute 1 to 1 1/2 cups of shelled natural pistachio nuts for walnuts. Substitute 1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries for currants. Goober and Raisinette Wreath Swap butterscotch for peanut butter chips Swap large whole peanuts for walnuts used in original recipe (such as peeled Virginia Peanuts) Swap 1/2 cup large raisins for currants in original recipe
