Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Toppings
- 1/2 cup candy corn
- 2 Tablespoons fall or Halloween sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare Pan: Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to overhang the sides to make removal easier, then set it aside.
- Microwave Fudge Mixture: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir. Microwave for an additional 30 seconds and stir again until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
- Add Vanilla: Stir in the pure vanilla extract thoroughly into the melted fudge mixture for consistent flavor.
- Pour and Top: Transfer the fudge mixture to the prepared pan. Evenly sprinkle the candy corn and fall or Halloween sprinkles on top, pressing them gently into the fudge so they stick as it sets.
- Cool and Set: Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours until fully set and firm.
- Slice and Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and cut into your desired sized pieces. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
- Storage: Store the fudge at room temperature in an airtight container for up to one week. For longer storage, freeze in a freezer-safe bag or container for up to 6 months, thawing before serving.
