Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- Green food coloring, as needed
- 1 tsp peppermint extract
Topping
- Red heart sprinkles, for decoration
Instructions
- Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent the fudge from sticking and to make removal easier.
- Melt Ingredients: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each interval until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
- Add Flavor and Color: Stir in green food coloring until you achieve your desired vibrant green shade, then add the peppermint extract and mix well to combine the flavors.
- Pour Mixture: Transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to ensure uniform thickness.
- Add Toppings: Sprinkle the red heart sprinkles evenly over the top for a festive touch and contrast in color.
- Chill to Set: Place the baking pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours until the fudge is firm and set.
- Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out using the parchment paper, cut into 12 equal squares, and enjoy this seasonal treat!
Notes
- Ensure to stir well between microwave intervals to avoid burning the chocolate.
- If you prefer a stronger peppermint flavor, you can adjust the extract amount to taste.
- The fudge can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a smoother texture, allow the fudge to come to room temperature for a few minutes before serving.
- You can substitute white chocolate chips with white chocolate bars chopped finely if preferred.
