Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups White chocolate chips
- 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Dried cranberries
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Line an 8x8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring there is overhang on all sides for easy removal later.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter.
Stir constantly with a rubber spatula until the mixture is fully melted and smooth. Be patient and avoid turning the heat too high to prevent scorching.
Once melted, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt until evenly incorporated.
Gently fold in the dried cranberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 3 hours, or until fully set.
Once the fudge is set, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut the fudge into 16 squares or your desired serving size and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
