Easy Microwave Cherry Almond Fudge image

I love almond flavor. One day while making my easy Holiday fudge, I tried experimenting with almond extract, and leftover maraschino cherries. Everyone loved the results. It's so easy to whip up, when you get a chocolate craving.

This fudge is a great way to use up leftover cherries. It's also a great make-ahead dessert. I like to make it a day or two ahead of time so that the flavors have a chance to meld.
