Line an 8-inch (20 cm) square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, white chocolate chips, and unsalted butter over low heat. Stir constantly until melted and smooth, about 3-5 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the lime zest, lime juice, powdered sugar, and salt. Stir until fully incorporated and smooth.
Gently fold in the chopped macadamia nuts until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and place it on a cutting board.
Cut the fudge into 16 squares (or desired size) and serve. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
