    🥣Ingredient Notes

    ingredients needed to make fudge

    📋Step by Step Instructions

    STEP 1: Pour the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk into a large microwave-safe bowl. I love these bowls from CorningWare.

    STEP 2: To melt the chips, microwave for 60 seconds and stir. Continue to microwave for 15 seconds at a time, removing to stir in-between heating until all the chips are melted.

    STEP 3: Stir in ¼ cup of sprinkles.

    STEP 4: Pour the fudge mixture into an 8-inch by 8-inch square pan that has been prepared with parchment paper. Spread evenly so the fudge is leveled.

    STEP 5: Sprinkle ¼ cup of sprinkles on top of the fudge.

    STEP 6: Cover the fudge and refrigerate for 2 hours until the fudge has set.

    STEP 7: When the Christmas fudge recipe is ready, you can pull it up from the baking dish using the parchment to lift it from the pan and cut it into 25 square pieces.

    👩🏻‍🍳Expert Tips

    Tip 1: If you plan to give this as a gift, you can make it up to two weeks in advance and store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container. You can also store the fudge at room temperature for up to 5 days.

    Tip 2: You do not need to use cooking spray.

    🤷🏻‍♀️Recipe FAQs

    Can I put this fudge in the freezer to help it set faster?

    No, putting it in the freezer will not produce the same taste and texture as allowing it to set in the refrigerator.

    I want to make this easy fudge recipe but it's not Christmas. Can I use other sprinkles?

    Yes, you can substitute whatever sprinkles you have around for the red and green ones. If it's autumn, you can use red, yellow, and orange sprinkles or pastel sprinkles for spring fudge.

    What else can I add to this sweet treat?

    You can add 1 cup or coarsely chopped walnuts or chopped pecans.
