Description

A vibrant and creamy fudge with the perfect balance of tartness and sweetness, reminiscent of sunny afternoons and family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup key lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon key lime zest
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare your pan: Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
  2. Melt the butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Add the sweetened condensed milk, stirring until well combined.
  3. Add chocolate chips: Remove the saucepan from heat and mix in the white chocolate chips until they melt into a smooth mixture.
  4. Incorporate key lime juice and zest: Stir in the key lime juice, lime zest, and salt until mixed well.
  5. Pour and set: Transfer the mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Cool at room temperature for about an hour, then refrigerate for at least two more hours until set.
  6. Cut and serve: Lift the fudge out using the parchment overhang, cut it into squares, and enjoy!

Notes

Let the fudge cool gradually for best texture. Avoid high heat when melting to prevent burning.
