Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips or a chopped white chocolate bar
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk for creamy texture
  • 2 tablespoons butter for richness
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to deepen flavor
  • 1 pinch salt to balance the sweetness
Mix-ins
  • 1 cup dried cranberries for tart flavor
  • optional chopped pistachios for added crunch and color
  • optional 1 teaspoon orange zest for a citrus flavor

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing the sides to hang over for easy lifting. Lightly butter the parchment.
  2. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave in 20 to 30-second bursts, stirring well after each, until almost melted.
  3. Stir in vanilla and a pinch of salt. Let the mixture cool for 1 to 2 minutes, then fold in dried cranberries and optional pistachios.
  4. Smooth the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and tap gently to settle air bubbles.
Setting
  1. Chill in the refrigerator for about 2 to 3 hours or until firm.
  2. Lift the slab out using the parchment and cut into small squares.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, or in the freezer for 2 to 3 months. Layer with parchment to keep pieces from sticking.
