Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 ounces / 400 grams) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup (120 grams) marshmallow fluff
Flavor and Color Enhancers:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon bubblegum extract
- 2–3 drops pink food coloring
Finishing Ingredient:
- 1/4 cup (30 grams) powdered sugar
Instructions
- Prepare an 8-inch square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring complete coverage and smooth edges for easy removal.
- Create a gentle double boiler setup using a saucepan, melting white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter over low heat, continuously stirring to prevent scorching and achieve a silky smooth consistency.
- Remove the melted mixture from heat, then gently fold in marshmallow fluff, incorporating bubblegum extract and vibrant pink food coloring until the texture becomes uniform and color is evenly distributed.
- Transfer the luminous pink mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to spread it evenly and eliminate any air pockets, creating a perfectly level surface.
- Chill the fudge in the refrigerator for approximately 2-3 hours, or until it becomes completely firm and set, which allows the flavors to meld and the texture to solidify.
- Once fully chilled, lift the fudge from the pan using parchment paper edges, then slice into precise square pieces using a sharp knife.
- Optional: Dust the fudge squares with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar for an elegant finishing touch and additional sweetness.
Notes
- Prevent scorching by using low, gentle heat when melting chocolate to maintain smooth texture.
- Swap bubblegum extract for vanilla or almond extract for different flavor variations.
- Ensure parchment paper overhangs pan edges for easy fudge removal without breaking.
- Use gel food coloring for more vibrant color without altering mixture consistency.
