Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk, divided
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/3 cup crushed peppermint candies
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy lifting. Lightly grease the paper.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips, half of the sweetened condensed milk, 1 tablespoon butter, and a pinch of salt. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- In another bowl, melt white chocolate chips with the remaining condensed milk and 1 tablespoon butter. Stir until smooth, then mix in the peppermint extract.
- Spread the chocolate layer into the prepared pan. Pour the white chocolate mixture over it. Swirl the two gently with a skewer or knife.
- Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies over the top, gently pressing them into the surface.
- Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or until firm.
- Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan and slice into small squares using a sharp knife.
Notes
- Store the fudge in an airtight container.
- Use fresh peppermint for best flavor.
- Try adding different toppings for variety.
