Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup eggnog
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Topping (optional)

  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 teaspoon extra nutmeg


Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
  2. Melt Ingredients: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine 3 cups white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the mixture is melted and smooth, being careful to maintain low heat to prevent the chocolate from seizing.
  3. Add Flavors: Stir in the eggnog, vanilla extract, ground nutmeg, and salt. Continue stirring the mixture until all ingredients are fully incorporated and the fudge slightly thickens.
  4. Set the Fudge: Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
  5. Add Toppings (Optional): Sprinkle the remaining white chocolate chips over the top and gently press them into the surface. Dust with the extra nutmeg for garnish to enhance flavor and presentation.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 3 hours or until fully set and firm enough to cut.
  7. Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into small squares, approximately 16 pieces.

Notes

  • Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week to maintain freshness.
  • For a stronger eggnog flavor, add a splash of rum extract during the flavoring step.
  • Use low heat when melting chocolate to prevent it from seizing and ruining texture.
