4th of July White Chocolate Fudge
Description
The 4th of July White Chocolate Fudge is prepared by cooking sugar, butter, and evaporated milk together to a boil, then mixing in marshmallow creme and white chocolate chips for a creamy, rich base. The mixture is divided into three bowls, colored with red and blue food coloring while leaving one portion white. These layers are poured sequentially into a lined loaf pan and swirled with a knife to produce a marbled, tri-colored fudge that sets as it cools.
This method yields a firm yet creamy texture that can be sliced into festive squares. The combination of white chocolate and marshmallow contributes to both sweetness and smooth consistency, distinguishing it from typical fudge recipes. Using gel or paste food coloring helps maintain vivid colors without altering texture significantly.
The fudge is great for patriotic holiday parties, serving as a colorful dessert or gift. Allowing the fudge to cool completely ensures clean slicing. The recipe advises using gel or paste food coloring for best results. Nutritional values may vary with products used and are only estimates.
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted
- 5 oz evaporated milk
- 2 cups marshmallow creme
- 8 oz white chocolate chips
- Food Coloring red and blue
Instructions
- Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with foil. Spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside.
- *Have everything ready to go before continuing, as the fudge will set up quickly. You will need 3 bowls, 3 spatulas, the food coloring and a knife.
- In a large pot or saucepan, combine the sugar, butter, and evaporated milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently. When the mixture comes to a boil, stir constantly for 5 minutes. Add in the marshmallow creme and the white chocolate chips and stir until smooth.
- Divide the mixture into 3 bowls. Add red food coloring to one, blue food coloring to one, and leave the third bowl white. Stir each color.
- Pour the red fudge into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top as best as possible. Pour the white fudge on top of the red, then pour the blue on the top. (Stir each bowl before pouring, just in case the fudge started to set up.) Take a knife and drag it through all three layers, making the marbled effect.
- Let the fudge cool completely before cutting, at least 2 hours.
Notes
- Gel or paste food coloring is recommended to keep vivid colors without affecting fudge texture.
- Allow fudge to cool completely before slicing to achieve clean edges and proper firmness.
- Nutritional information is an estimate and varies depending on ingredient brands and proportions.
