Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (14 oz/396 g) sweetened condensed milk
- 12 oz (340 g) white chocolate chips
- ½ cup (100 g) pink and red valentines sprinkles
- ½ cup (75 g) crushed sugar cookies
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ tsp almond extract (optional)
Instructions
- Preparation: Line a square baking dish with parchment paper, covering bottom and sides completely for effortless removal.
- Chocolate Melting: Combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in brief 20-second intervals and stirring meticulously until achieving a smooth, glossy consistency.
- Flavor Infusion: Integrate vanilla extract and pink food coloring, blending thoroughly to create a delicate blush-toned base with aromatic undertones.
- Cookie Integration: Fold sugar cookie crumbs evenly into the melted mixture, ensuring a balanced distribution of crumbly texture throughout the fudge.
- Decorative Embellishment: Generously sprinkle heart-shaped decorations across the surface, gently pressing them to anchor securely within the creamy mixture.
- Setting Process: Pour the prepared fudge into the lined dish, smoothing the surface with a spatula to create an uniform layer, then refrigerate for approximately 2 hours until completely solidified.
- Serving Preparation: Remove the chilled fudge using parchment paper edges, transfer to a cutting board, and slice into precise squares or romantic heart-shaped pieces.
- Storage: Preserve the finished confection in an airtight container within the refrigerator to maintain its luxurious texture and delicate flavor profile.
Notes
- Choose High-Quality Ingredients: Select premium white chocolate chips and fresh sweetened condensed milk for the smoothest, richest fudge texture.
- Manage Microwave Melting: Use short 20-second intervals when melting chocolate to prevent burning, stirring thoroughly between each burst for uniform consistency.
- Control Color Intensity: Add food coloring gradually, mixing carefully to achieve the desired soft pink shade without overwhelming the fudge’s delicate flavor.
- Prevent Sticky Cutting: Wipe knife blade with warm, damp cloth between cuts to create clean, precise edges when slicing the chilled fudge.
