Ingredients

3 3/4 cups (24oz) white chocolate chips
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup sprinkles

Instructions

Step 1: Line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper, making sure the paper covers the sides of the pan for easy removal.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave for one minute, then stir well to help melt the chocolate. If needed, microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
Step 3: Stir in the vanilla extract and 1/4 cup of the sprinkles. Quickly pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
Step 4: Sprinkle the remaining sprinkles over the top and gently press them into the fudge surface.
Step 5: Refrigerate the fudge until completely cool and firm, about 2 hours.

Tips & Variations

For a richer flavor, try adding a pinch of sea salt on top before refrigerating.
Use colored or themed sprinkles to customize the fudge for different celebrations.
Gently fold in chopped nuts or dried fruit for added texture.
Make sure not to overheat the chocolate to prevent it from becoming grainy.

Storage

Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If refrigerated, allow fudge to come to room temperature before serving for best texture.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate?

Yes, you can substitute dark or milk chocolate chips, but the flavor and color will differ from the traditional white chocolate fudge.

How do I prevent the fudge from becoming grainy?

Be sure to melt the white chocolate gently and stir thoroughly to combine the ingredients smoothly. Avoid overheating, which can cause the chocolate to seize or become grainy.

Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

3 3/4 cups (24 oz) white chocolate chips
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract

Topping

1/2 cup sprinkles (divided, 1/4 cup for mixing in and 1/4 cup for topping)

Instructions

Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper that covers the sides, to make it easy to lift out the fudge once set.
Melt the Chocolate: Combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then stir thoroughly to help the chocolate melt completely. If needed, microwave for an additional 30 seconds and stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
Add Flavor and Mix Sprinkles: Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and 1/4 cup of sprinkles quickly into the chocolate mixture, ensuring an even distribution.
Spread Mixture: Immediately transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or the back of a spoon.
Add Topping: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of sprinkles on top of the fudge, gently pressing them into the surface to help them stick.
Chill Until Firm: Refrigerate the fudge for several hours, or until it is completely cool and firm to the touch.
Slice and Store: Lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper, cut it into squares, and store in an airtight container. The fudge can be kept at room temperature or refrigerated for longer freshness.

Notes

Be careful not to overheat the chocolate in the microwave to prevent burning; stir well to help even melting.
Use good quality white chocolate chips for the best texture and flavor.
Feel free to customize the sprinkles or omit them for a simpler look.
Store leftover fudge in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
Fudge can also be stored at room temperature if consumed within a few days, otherwise refrigeration is recommended.
