Ingredients
Scale
Pink Fudge Layer
- 1½ cups white chocolate chips
- 150 ml sweetened condensed milk (half of a 300 ml can)
- Pinch of salt
- 2 drops red food coloring (adjust to get desired pink shade)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
White Fudge Layer
- 1½ cups white chocolate chips
- 150 ml sweetened condensed milk (remaining half of the 300 ml can)
- Pinch of salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- Valentine sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper and set aside to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
- Mix pink fudge ingredients: In a large microwavable bowl, combine 1½ cups white chocolate chips, half the can of sweetened condensed milk (150 ml), and a pinch of salt.
- Microwave pink fudge mixture: Heat the mixture in the microwave for 20-second intervals, stirring well between each until the chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Add flavor and color to pink fudge: Stir in ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and add 2 drops of red food coloring, mixing until the color is evenly distributed. Add more food coloring if a deeper pink shade is desired.
- Set pink fudge layer: Pour and spread the pink fudge evenly into the prepared pan and allow it to cool for 30 minutes so it begins to set.
- Prepare white fudge ingredients: In another large microwavable bowl, combine the remaining 1½ cups white chocolate chips, 150 ml sweetened condensed milk, and a pinch of salt.
- Microwave white fudge mixture: Microwave again in 20-second increments, stirring each time, until the chocolate has melted completely and the mixture is smooth.
- Add vanilla to white fudge: Stir in ½ teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Layer white fudge: Spread the white fudge evenly over the pink fudge layer in the pan.
- Add sprinkles: Sprinkle Valentine-themed sprinkles generously over the white fudge layer for decoration.
- Chill fudge: Refrigerate the fudge in the pan for about 2 hours or until firm and set.
- Serve and store: Remove fudge from the pan using the parchment paper, cut into 16 squares, and store tightly covered at room temperature.
Notes
- Microwaving in short increments helps prevent the chocolate from burning.
- For a more intense pink color, add food coloring gradually while tasting to ensure flavor balance.
- Make sure to use parchment paper for easier removal of fudge from the pan.
- Store fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
- Use good quality white chocolate chips for best flavor and texture.
