Ingredients
Main Ingredients

- 397 g sweetened condensed milk Adds sweetness and creates a luscious texture.
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract Elevates the flavor profile.
Optional Ingredients

- 1 g Valentine-themed sprinkles (red, pink, white) Makes your fudge visually appealing.
- 1 g edible glitter or sugar pearls Optional for added sparkle.
Instructions
Preparation
- Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment with a non-stick spray or a bit of butter.
Cooking
- In a medium saucepan, combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Heat over low to medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and creamy.
- Remove from heat and stir in pure vanilla extract and optional food coloring until fully incorporated.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Generously sprinkle Valentine-themed sprinkles over the top of the fudge, lightly pressing them in to stick.
- Place the fudge in the refrigerator for 2–3 hours, or until completely set and firm.
Finishing Touches
- Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into heart shapes using the cookie cutter. Any scraps can be re-rolled and cut.
Notes
To ensure perfect fudge: use high-quality ingredients, allow sweetened condensed milk to reach room temperature, and avoid overheating chocolate during melting. Feel free to experiment with different flavors.
