Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 22 oz white chocolate chips Ghirardelli brand preferred
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter cold and cubed
- 0.5 tsp red gel food coloring start with ¼ tsp and adjust for desired color
- 0.5 tsp green gel food coloring start with ¼ tsp and adjust for desired color
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
- In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and cold butter cubes. Stir constantly for 4-6 minutes until smooth and melted. Remove from heat. Tip: Make sure to stir continuously to prevent the chocolate from burning.
- Transfer 1/3 of the melted mixture to a small bowl and mix in red gel food coloring until desired color is achieved.
- In another bowl, mix another 1/3 of the mixture with green gel food coloring until desired color is reached.
- Randomly add dollops of the white, red, and green mixtures into the prepared pan.
- Use a skewer or knife to gently swirl the colors for a decorative pattern on top. Tip: Don’t over-swirl; you want to keep the distinct colors visible!
- Press down gently on the fudge with parchment paper to smooth the top without disturbing the swirls.
- Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours until set.
- Once set, lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper overhang, place on a cutting board, and slice into 64 1x1 inch pieces to serve.
Notes
For a festive touch, consider adding sprinkles or edible glitter on top before chilling.
