Ingredients:

  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Red and green food coloring
  • 1/4 cup holiday sprinkles (optional, for decoration)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Pan:
  • Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. Leave some extra paper hanging over the edges for easy fudge removal once itโ€™s set.
  1. Melt the Chocolate:
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.
  • Stir constantly over low heat until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  • Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  1. Color the Fudge:
  • Divide the melted chocolate mixture evenly into three separate bowls.
  • In one bowl, add a few drops of red food coloring and stir until you reach the desired shade.
  • In the second bowl, add green food coloring and mix well.
  • Leave the third bowl plain.
  1. Layer the Fudge:
  • Pour the red fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
  • Next, pour the plain fudge mixture over the red layer and spread it evenly.
  • Finally, layer the green fudge on top.
  • For a festive marbled effect, gently swirl a knife through all three layers.
  1. Add Sprinkles:
  • While the fudge is still warm, sprinkle holiday-themed sprinkles on top to add a touch of sparkle.
  1. Chill:
  • Place the fudge in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  • Once itโ€™s set, use the parchment paper to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut it into small squares.
