Ingredients
- 3 cups White chocolate chips
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup Eggnog
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment with butter or cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, eggnog, and unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir frequently until the butter has melted and the mixture is smooth, taking care not to let it boil.
Step 3
Reduce heat to low and add the white chocolate chips. Stir continuously until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is thick and glossy.
Step 4
Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in the ground nutmeg, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract. Mix until the spices are well incorporated.
Step 5
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Use a rubber spatula to smooth the top if needed.
Step 6
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for at least 2 hours or until firm. For quicker results, place the pan in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Step 7
Once the fudge has set, use the parchment overhang to lift it out of the pan. Transfer it to a cutting board and cut it into 36 small squares using a sharp knife.
Step 8
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
