Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 (14-ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup walnuts, chopped
Sweeteners:
- 1/4 cup real maple syrup
Finishing Ingredients:
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Prepare a square baking vessel by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring extra material hangs over the edges to facilitate effortless extraction later.
- Combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, maple syrup, and butter in a medium saucepan over moderate heat, whisking consistently until the mixture transforms into a silky, luxurious consistency with no visible lumps.
- When the mixture reaches a smooth texture, immediately remove from heat source and gently fold in roughly chopped walnuts, ensuring they are uniformly distributed throughout the creamy base.
- Transfer the fudge mixture into the prepared parchment-lined pan, using a flexible spatula to create an even surface and eliminate potential air pockets by gently tapping the container against the countertop.
- Refrigerate the unbaked fudge for a minimum of four hours, allowing it to solidify completely and develop a firm, sliceable texture.
- Once fully chilled, extract the fudge from the refrigerator and utilize the overhanging parchment paper to lift the entire block onto a cutting surface.
- Slice the fudge into neat, bite-sized squares using a sharp knife, creating uniform pieces perfect for serving and sharing.
Notes
- Ensure parchment paper extends beyond pan edges for effortless lifting and clean cutting of fudge squares.
- Use high-quality maple syrup for intense, authentic flavor that elevates the entire dessert’s taste profile.
- Toast walnuts briefly before chopping to enhance their nutty depth and add delightful crunch to the fudge texture.
- Experiment with alternative nuts like pecans or almonds for personalized variations that suit different taste preferences.
