Gumdrop Fudge

Saw this over at Taste of Home and knew I had to make it. It's so pretty and festive huh? It was quick, rich, smooth and so sweet but I packed it up and give it away.
I know they will love it.
1 1/2 lbs white candy coating, coarsely chopped
1 can(14oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/8 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 c chopped gumdrops (put in fridge for about 30 minutes to make chopping them up easier - I used spiced ones)

Line a 9" square pan with foil, long enough to hang over sides - set aside.
In a heavy saucepan, combine the candy coating, condensed milk and salt. Cook and stir over low heat until it's all melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and chopped gumdrops.
Pour into prepared pan, cover and refrigerate until firm and set. Using foil edges, remove from pan and cut into small squares. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
Makes about 3 lbs.
