# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
3 cups premium white chocolate chips (about 2 eleven-ounce bags)
02 -
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
03 -
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract, clear preferred
04 -
2 drops lime green gel food coloring
05 -
16 mini red candy hearts for decoration
# Instructions:
01 -
Get your 8-inch square baking pan ready by lining it completely with parchment paper, making sure to cover the bottom and all sides for easy removal later.
02 -
Combine the white chocolate chips with the sweetened condensed milk in a medium saucepan. Heat gently over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Keep stirring until everything melts into a smooth, creamy mixture.
03 -
Remove from heat and quickly stir in the vanilla extract and green food coloring until you achieve that perfect Grinch-green color throughout the mixture.
04 -
Pour the green fudge mixture into your prepared pan and smooth it out evenly. While it's still soft, gently press the red candy hearts on top in a 4x4 pattern so each piece will have one heart when cut. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until completely firm.
05 -
Once set, lift the fudge out using the parchment paper and transfer to a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut into 16 equal squares. Arrange on a festive platter and enjoy your holiday treats!
# Notes:
01 -
For the most vibrant Grinch color, use clear vanilla extract instead of the amber-colored variety
02 -
If your fudge turns out too sweet for your taste, add just a pinch of salt to balance the flavors
03 -
Work quickly when spreading the fudge as it begins to set as soon as you remove it from heat
