Fudge Ingredients
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Green food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Dish: Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easy removal of the fudge later.
- Melt Butter: In a saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat to avoid burning or separating.
- Add Chocolate and Condensed Milk: Stir in the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk continuously until the mixture melts completely and becomes smooth and creamy.
- Add Flavor and Color: Mix in the peppermint extract and salt to enhance the minty flavor and balance the sweetness. Add green food coloring if you desire a festive, mint-green hue.
- Set the Fudge: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until the fudge is fully set and firm enough to cut into squares.
- Serve: Once set, cut the fudge into squares and enjoy your delicious white chocolate mint treat.
Notes
- Ensure low heat when melting to prevent chocolate from scorching.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and clean-up.
- Adjust peppermint extract to taste for a stronger or milder mint flavor.
- Refrigerate fully for best texture; fudge can also be stored in an airtight container for up to one week.
- Optional green food coloring adds a festive touch but can be omitted.
