# Ingredients:
→ Fudge Base
01 -
2 cups white chocolate chips
02 -
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
03 -
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
04 -
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder
05 -
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
06 -
1/4 cup caramel sauce
07 -
Pinch of sea salt
# Instructions:
01 -
Combine white chocolate chips and butter in a small saucepan. Melt over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and fully combined.
02 -
Add sweetened condensed milk and instant espresso powder to the melted mixture. Stir until the espresso is dissolved and the mixture becomes creamy.
03 -
Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt until well incorporated.
04 -
Transfer the mixture into a parchment-lined 8×8-inch pan. Drizzle caramel sauce evenly over the top and use a toothpick or knife to swirl the caramel through the surface.
05 -
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 3 to 4 hours until the fudge is firm and fully set.
06 -
Once set, remove the fudge from the pan, slice into squares, and serve.
# Notes:
01 -
Use high-quality white chocolate for optimal texture and flavor.
02 -
Do not skip the sea salt; it elevates both the caramel and coffee notes.
03 -
For intensified coffee flavor, add an extra teaspoon of espresso powder.
04 -
Allow the fudge to cool and set thoroughly before slicing to maintain structure.
05 -
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 3 months.
