Orange Creamsicle Fudge

Option number three for my coworkers, Option number 1 on Hubby's list of favorite fudge.

1 1/2 t  Butter
3/4 c  butter
3 c  sugar
3/4 c  heavy whipping cream
12 ounces White candy wafers
7 ounces marshmallow creme
3 tsp  orange extract
8 drops yellow food coloring
4 drops red food coloring

Grease a 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. pan with 1-1/2 teaspoons butter; set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, cream and remaining butter. 

Cook and stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 4 minutes. 

Remove from the heat; stir in wafers and marshmallow creme until smooth.

Remove 1 cup and set aside. 

Add orange extract and food coloring to the remaining mixture; stir until blended. 

Pour into prepared pan. 

Drop reserved marshmallow mixture by tablespoonfuls over the top; cut through with a knife to swirl. 

Cover and refrigerate until set. Cut into squares.
