Ingredients

  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup heavy cream
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • Pinch of kosher salt
  • 1 jar marshmallow cream 7oz
  • 1 jar white chocolate chips 11oz
  • 2 teaspoons orange extract
  • 1-2 drops orange gel food coloring

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line an 8inch baking dish with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Prepare your mixing bowl by adding the marshmallow cream and white chocolate morsels. Set aside.
  3. In a large saucepan over medium high heat, combine sugar, cream, butter and salt. Bring to a boil. Stirring constantly, boil for a full 4 minutes (ROLLING BOIL). Remove from heat.
  4. Immediately pour hot mixture over marshmallow and white chocolate chips in mixing bowl. Using your electric mixer, blend until smooth (and white chocolate is melted, about 1 minute). Pour HALF of this mixture into prepared baking dish.
  5. To the remaining half, add orange extract and food coloring. Blend until smooth and pour over white layer of fudge.
  6. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours until firm. Cut into small pieces and enjoy.

Notes

  • I also like the taste when it’s chilled in the fridge! For best freshness, make sure to always store fudge in a sealed container with a lid. No one wants dry and crumbly fudge!
  • I also find that fudge tastes freshest when you eat it soon after slicing. So I store it in block form and cut only what we’ll be eating right away.
  • After the fudge has set, cut it into squares and store in freezer bags with sheets of wax paper between fudge layers to prevent them from sticking together. Let frozen fudge thaw in the refrigerator overnight or on the counter top for a couple of hours.
