Instructions

Line baking dish with baking/parchment paper.

1. Place the chopped white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl.

2. Put the bowl in a microwave and heat for 1-2 minutes stirring every 30 sec until the chocolate melts.

3. Now stir in the cranberries until well combined.

4. Pour the mixture into the lined baking dish, spread it evenly with the spatula. Tap the baking dish a few times on the counter to remove unwanted air bubbles. 

Place the baking dish in the fridge for 2-3 hours or until the fudge sets. 

Once the white fudge is set, take the baking dish out of the fridge.

Gently remove the baking paper from the baking dish and cut the condensed milk fudge into equal squares. 

Store the white chocolate fudge with cranberries in an airtight container.

To make white chocolate condensed milk fudge with nuts, just add one or a combination of pistachios, almonds or walnuts.

The toasted desiccated coconut added to the white fudge recipe will give a nutty flavour and aroma.

Top tip

The key part in achieving the perfect fudge with the right consistency is to have a 1:1 ratio of white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk or use a little more chocolate. More condensed milk than chocolate would make it difficult for the fudge to set no matter how long you keep it in the fridge. The fudge would be softer and you may find it difficult to cut into proper squares.
