This White Chocolate Fudge Is Different!

Please don’t compare this easy white chocolate fudge recipe to traditional way of making fudge.

There is definitely going to a minor change in texture of the fudge, as this white chocolate fudge recipe is microwave recipe (can be made on stove-top) and it uses condensed milk.

Traditional fudge recipe uses sugar, milk, butter boiled to right consistency in sauce pan over stove top. Replacing sugar and milk with condensed milk for this easy white chocolate fudge recipe makes a minor difference in the texture of the fudge.

Chocolate fudge made with condensed milk results in a little dense and has a tad chewy texture, but it tastes incredible.

For all you sweet tooth lovers, you won’t be disappointed with this fudge recipe.

The chocolate to condensed milk ratio is important to achieve the best microwave white chocolate fudge.

Use this recipe as a base and you can add any toppings or sprinkles of your choice.

How to Make White Chocolate Fudge

  1. Combine good quality white chocolate with condensed milk in deep large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 30 seconds interval for about 3 to 5 minutes or until white chocolate is melted. Keep stirring every 30 seconds to a minute.
  2. Keep an eye on your chocolate. DO NOT OVER HEAT chocolate or burn it.
  3. You can melt white chocolate separately first and then mix in condensed milk. I prefer to heat both white chocolate and condensed milk together and stir it all together.
  4. You can add in extras like a pinch of salt and vanilla extract to make chocolate fudge more delicious. Skip it too if you prefer that way, you really won’t miss a thing.
  5. Finally, pour the melted chocolate mixture into a greased dish and refrigerate it until set. This will take around 3-4 hour. Best chill it over night. You can also set it on the counter at room temperature, but it’ll take more time to set.
  6. Once completely set, remove dish from fridge, and slice into small squares. Enjoy!

Tips for Making White Chocolate Fudge

White chocolate – Use best quality white chocolate. Ghiradelli chocolate is great.

Stir – keep stirring every 30 seconds. Do not heat chocolate in microwave for longer time at a stretch. Take out chocolate from microwave every 30 to 60 seconds and stir.

Do not over heat chocolate. You will loose beautiful texture of the fudge if chocolate is over heated.

Microwave or stove-top – either! Easy white chocolate fudge works on both microwave and stove-top. If using stove-top method, use double boiler.

Pan – any chocolate fudge is best set in square dish. Use 8×8 or 9×9 square dishes to set your fudge. It makes cutting fudge into squares easy. Glass dish or metal dish can be used.

Cool – do not get tempted to slice white chocolate fudge before it sets. Allow fudge to cool completely before cutting into squares. To speedup things, cool fudge in fridge.

Toppings – get creative and add any toppings you like. Colorful sprinkles always attracts me and my kids. So my safest bet for topping is sprinkles. Few topping options are:

  • Nuts – crushed walnuts, pistachios, chopped pecans
  • Dried fruits – cranberries, cherries
  • Candy – M&M’s
  • Colored sugar
  • Pretzels
  • Reese cups
  • Cinnamon chips
  • Short bread cookies
  • Dark choco chips
  • Cereal

How Long Can you Store White Chocolate Fudge

Microwave white chocolate fudge stays good for 1 week in fridge.

FAQs

What is white fudge made of? ›

White Chocolate Chips – Use your favorite brand of white chocolate since this will be the primary flavor. I love using chopped Dove white chocolate candy bars. Sweetened condensed milk- This is used to sweeten the fudge and give an ultra-smooth and creamy texture. Sea salt- Balances out the sweetness.

Why didn't my white chocolate fudge set? ›

Fudge Didn't Set

If your fudge turned out super sticky, or it didn't set as it cooled, it probably never got hot enough. This mistake is super easy to avoid if you use a candy thermometer and cook the fudge to the temperature specified in the recipe (usually between 234 and 239°F).

What is the difference between white chocolate and white fudge? ›

Chocolate uses elements of the cacao bean; even in creating white chocolate, cocoa butter from the cacao bean is the main ingredient. Fudge, however, is a confection made both with and without cocoa or other chocolate elements. You can substitute vanilla or peanut butter, for example, for the chocolate.

What is the secret to smooth fudge that is not gritty? ›

Once a seed crystal forms, it grows bigger and bigger as the fudge cools. A lot of big crystals in fudge makes it grainy. By letting the fudge cool without stirring, you avoid creating seed crystals.

Why is my 3 ingredient fudge not setting? ›

The main reason is that your Fudge has not reached the optimum temperature. If your mixture only reaches 110 or 112 degrees Celsius it will always be soft. That's why we recommend investing in a sugar thermometer.

What makes high quality fudge? ›

It's the size of sugar crystals that makes the knees of fudge lovers buckle…the smaller the crystals, the less they are perceived on the tongue and the more the fudge tastes smooth and creamy. Cooking, and beating after cooking, is the key to successful fudge.

Why is my white chocolate fudge sticky? ›

You wait patiently, only to discover that it's still a sticky, gummy mess. But don't despair or throw out the entire pan of fudge: You can probably remedy the situation. Fudge usually behaves this way when it's not cooked to a high enough temperature (due to oversight or a faulty candy thermometer).

Why is my fudge not creamy? ›

By cooling the fudge prior to agitation (like in the recipes included in this article), on the other hand, you'll get much smaller, finer sugar crystals and a finished fudge with a smooth, creamy texture. Cool the mixture until it reads 120° F on the thermometer—no stirring.

What if I forgot the vanilla in my fudge? ›

There are lots of fudge recipes around which don't use vanilla at all (it's a treat which is very open to experimentation in general). So if you don't add vanilla, it won't taste like vanilla, but that doesn't necessarily mean it will taste bad, have the wrong consistency or behave differently when cooked and cooled.

Why is my white chocolate not setting? ›

It could be that your room temperature is too high. If the temperature is over 68 F, this can cause problems. The ideal setting temperature is between 65 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. It could also be that the chocolate wasn't tempered, because untempered chocolate takes quite a bit longer to set.

Can you remelt fudge if it doesn't set? ›

To fix it, you can reheat the fudge mixture over low heat and continue cooking until it reaches the proper temperature. Be sure to use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature accurately. Alternatively, you can try to salvage chewy fudge by mixing it into ice cream or using it as a topping for desserts.

What makes white chocolate better? ›

Milk solids, which typically include milk powder and sometimes added milkfat, contribute to the milky flavor of white chocolate and enhance its creamy texture by offering a slightly sweet, dairy taste to white chocolate, making it distinct from pure cocoa products,” says Best.

What makes white chocolate taste like white chocolate? ›

White chocolate is coagulated cocoa butter. Cocoa butter is the vegetable oil that comes from cocoa beans. White chocolate has no cocoa powder in it, which is why it tastes the way it does, and why it is white instead of brown like chocolate is.

What gives fudge its firm texture? ›

The key to creamy, luscious fudge is controlling crystal formation. If the sucrose (table sugar) crystals are small, the fudge will feel creamy and smooth on your tongue. But if the crystals are large, the fudge develops a crumbly, dry, or even coarse texture.

What does cream of tartar do in fudge? ›

Cream of tartar is used in caramel sauces and fudge to help prevent the sugar from crystallizing while cooking. It also prevents cooling sugars from forming brittle crystals, this is why it's the secret ingredient in snickerdoodles!

What makes fudge softer? ›

Undercooked. This fudge was cooked until the temperature reached only108 °C (226 °F). At this temperature, the sugar is not concentrated enough... there is too much leftover water in the syrup and the resulting fudge is soft.
