Ingredient Notes

Sweetened condensed milk is one of the two main ingredients – no substitutions. This recipe works with either regular or fat-free.
White chocolate chips are the second main ingredient. This recipe would also work with any flavor chocolate chip. Buy a good quality brand (i.e. Ghirardelli, not store brand) because the fudge is going to taste like this the most, and you want a good flavor. You can also use white candy melts, but I prefer chocolate chips. If you use melts, use Ghirardelli!

Variations

Peanut Butter: add some creamy or crunchy shelf-stable to flavor your fudge.
Extracts: Switch up the extract to make new flavors. Vanilla is standard but you could use peppermint extract, almond extract, lemon, anything. Just note that anything but vanilla extract is very strong so start with 1/4 teaspoon.
Nuts: You can add your favorite chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, almonds, peanuts, anything!)
Chopped Cookies or Candy: The sky is the limit! Use chocolate chip cookies, Oreos, dark chocolate chips, chopped Reese’s, etc.

How to make White Chocolate Fudge

You can use the stove or the microwave to make this. If cooking on a stove, use a saucepan over medium low heat. If using a microwave, be sure to stir it often so the chocolate doesn’t scorch.
Have everything ready to go before you start. Making fudge is fast work!
Prep your baking dish before you start – I like to line an 8-inch or 9-inch square pan with foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray for easy removal. You can also use parchment paper.
You can chill to set the fudge. Cut it into squares with a sharp knife.

Expert Tip
