Serves: 16 pieces
Ingredients
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing excess paper to hang over the sides for easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Create a double boiler by placing a heat-safe glass bowl over a pot of simmering water. Ensure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water surface.
- Add white chocolate chips to the glass bowl and stir gently using a silicone spatula. Melt the chips slowly, stirring continuously to prevent burning.
- Once the white chocolate chips are mostly melted, add creamy peanut butter and sweetened condensed milk. Stir until the mixture becomes smooth and fully combined.
- Remove the bowl from heat and quickly stir in vanilla extract, mixing thoroughly to distribute the flavor evenly.
- Pour the warm fudge mixture into the prepared parchment-lined pan. Use the spatula to spread the mixture evenly and smooth the top.
- Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until completely set and firm to the touch.
- Using the overhanging parchment paper, lift the fudge out of the pan and place on a cutting board.
- Cut the fudge into 16 equal squares using a sharp knife. For clean cuts, wipe the knife with a warm, damp cloth between each slice.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Allow pieces to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for the best texture.
Tips
- Use high-quality white chocolate chips for the best flavor and smoothest texture.
- Create a double boiler carefully to prevent water from getting into your chocolate, which can cause seizing.
- Stir continuously while melting chocolate to avoid burning.
- Make sure your parchment paper is well-greased to ensure easy removal.
- Allow the fudge to set completely in the refrigerator for clean, perfect cuts.
- For a professional touch, use a sharp knife and clean it between cuts for pristine squares.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent drying out.
- Let the fudge sit at room temperature for a few minutes before serving to achieve the perfect, melt-in-your-mouth texture.
