Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 0.66 cups Evaporated milk
- 3 cups White chocolate chips
- 7 oz Marshmallow creme
- 1 tbsp Orange zest
- 2 tsp Orange extract
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 4 drops Orange food coloring
Instructions
Grease and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal. Set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, unsalted butter, and evaporated milk.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once boiling, continue to stir and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes. The mixture should reach a smooth, glossy consistency.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the white chocolate chips and marshmallow creme until fully melted and combined.
Divide the fudge mixture into two separate bowls. Stir the orange zest and orange extract into one bowl, along with the orange food coloring to achieve your desired hue.
Stir the vanilla extract into the second bowl of fudge to create the plain vanilla layer.
Pour the vanilla fudge into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Spoon the orange fudge into dollops over the vanilla layer. Use a butter knife to gently swirl the two layers together to create a marbled effect. Avoid overmixing to maintain the distinct swirls.
Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until completely set.
Once firm, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Slice into 24 squares and serve.
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
