Ingredients

FOR THE CRUST:
  • 1 ½ cups nilla wafer crumbs about 48 cookies
  • 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter melted
FOR THE FUDGE:
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup unsalted butter
  • pinch of kosher salt
  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 11 ounces white chocolate chips
  • 7 ounces marshmallow cream
  • ¾ cup Strawberry Preserves

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Line a 9-inch square dish with foil. Set aside.
  2. In a food processor, pulse cookies until fine crumbs. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Press into bottom of prepared dish.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, add white chocolate chips and marshmallow cream. Set aside.
  4. In a large saucepan, combine sugar, butter, salt and cream. Heat over medium high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture begins to boil. Continue boiling for 4-5 minutes (at a rolling boil). Remove from heat and pour over chocolate chips and marshmallow cream.
  5. Using an electric mixer, beat mixture until white chocolate chips are melted and fudge is creamy (about 1-2 minutes). Add strawberry preserves and stir gently until swirled in. Pour over crust. Refrigerate fudge for 4 hours. Cut and serve!

Notes

  • How to store: Keep strawberry shortcake fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the fridge. I recommend storing UNCUT for best freshness. Cut a little at a time; only what you’re eating or serving immediately.
  • How to freeze fudge: Wrap uncut fudge in plastic cling wrap. Then place in a freezer safe bag. It’ll keep well for 2 months. Let thaw at room temperature or in the fridge before cutting.
  • Use an electric mixer: Beaters or a stand mixer help incorporate the fudge ingredients quickly, before they cool down. You CAN mix by hand but it’s much more difficult and time consuming.
