Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) white chocolate chips
- 1 (14 ounces/396 grams) can sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup (75 grams) crushed sugar cookies
Flavor Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Decorative Ingredients:
- ½ cup (100 grams) pink and red valentines sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare a square baking dish by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage of the bottom and sides for easy removal.
- Melt white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl, using short 20-second bursts and stirring thoroughly between each interval until the mixture becomes silky and uniform.
- Gently fold in vanilla extract, creating a consistent and fragrant base for the fudge.
- Incorporate pink food coloring, stirring until the mixture achieves a soft, romantic blush tone that evokes Valentine’s Day spirit.
- Sprinkle sugar cookie crumbs throughout the melted mixture, distributing them evenly to ensure each bite contains a delightful cookie texture.
- Carefully scatter heart-shaped sprinkles across the surface, pressing them lightly into the fudge to secure their placement.
- Transfer the prepared fudge into the lined baking dish, using a spatula to spread the mixture smoothly and create an even layer.
- Refrigerate the fudge for approximately 2 hours, or until the mixture becomes completely firm and set.
- Once chilled, lift the fudge from the dish using the parchment paper edges and place on a cutting board.
- Slice the fudge into precise squares or romantic heart shapes, creating bite-sized pieces perfect for Valentine’s Day celebrations.
- Store the finished fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain its creamy texture and preserve its delicate flavor.
Notes
- Choose high-quality white chocolate chips for the richest, creamiest fudge texture that melts smoothly.
- Add festive Valentine’s Day sprinkles or crushed conversation heart candies immediately after pouring into the pan to create a romantic, colorful design.
- Chill the fudge completely before cutting to ensure clean, precise edges and prevent crumbling when slicing into squares.
- Use parchment paper with slight overhang in the baking pan for easy removal and neat cutting of the fudge pieces.
