Ingredients
Scale
Base Ingredients
- 1 stick butter (softened)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips
Fudge Components
- 14 ounces Eagle-brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate (melted)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Spray a 9-inch square pan with cooking spray, then line the bottom with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the softened butter, sugar, and vanilla extract together until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
- Heat the Flour: Transfer the flour to a microwave-safe bowl and heat it in the microwave for about 1 1/2 minutes until hot, which helps make the flour safe to consume in this no-bake recipe. Then add the warmed flour and salt to the mixing bowl and blend until smooth.
- Melt White Chocolate: Slowly melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 10-second intervals, stirring thoroughly between each until it is fully melted and smooth.
- Incorporate Chocolate Chips: Stir the mini chocolate chips directly into the mixture in the mixing bowl to distribute them evenly throughout the fudge.
- Mix Condensed Milk with White Chocolate: Combine the sweetened condensed milk with the melted white chocolate, stirring until the mixture is perfectly smooth.
- Combine Mixtures: Add the white chocolate and condensed milk mixture into the mixing bowl and mix on low speed until everything is thoroughly blended together.
- Transfer to Pan: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared square pan and press it evenly with a spatula or the back of a large spoon to create a smooth surface.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until it becomes firm and set enough to cut easily.
- Slice and Serve: Once set, cut the fudge into 1 to 2 inch squares and arrange them on a plate or platter. Serve and enjoy this creamy, cookie dough-inspired treat!
Notes
- Warming the flour in the microwave helps eliminate any risk associated with consuming raw flour.
- The fudge firmness improves significantly with longer refrigeration time if you prefer a firmer texture.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and cleaner edges when cutting the fudge.
- You can substitute white chocolate with white chocolate chips but ensure they are fully melted for smooth texture.
- Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
