Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Toppings
- ½ cup festive red, white, and blue sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare your tools: Gather a mixing bowl, spatula, and an 8-inch square pan lined with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
- Melt the chocolate mixture: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the mixture is fully melted and smooth, being careful not to overheat to prevent burning.
- Add condensed milk and vanilla: Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and pure vanilla extract until the mixture is fully blended and glossy, forming a smooth fudge base.
- Mix in sprinkles: Remove the saucepan from heat and gently fold in the festive red, white, and blue sprinkles, reserving some for garnish if desired.
- Pour into pan: Transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared parchment-lined pan, spreading it evenly and pressing down lightly to remove air pockets and create a smooth surface.
- Chill until set: Refrigerate the fudge for about 2 hours or until firm enough to cut. Once set, cut into squares or fun shapes suitable for serving at your 4th of July celebration.
Notes
- Ensure the heat is low when melting white chocolate to prevent scorching.
- Use parchment paper to easily lift fudge out of the pan for cleaner cuts.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness for up to one week.
- For a nutty twist, consider adding chopped nuts to the mixture before chilling.
- Allow fudge to come to room temperature for a few minutes before serving for optimal texture.
