Units
Scale
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal. Lightly grease the parchment paper.
- Melt the base: In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk over low heat. Stir continuously until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Pour into pan: Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
- Add caramel: Drizzle the caramel sauce over the fudge and swirl it gently with a knife or toothpick for a marbled effect.
- Chill: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- Cut and serve: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into squares and sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
Notes
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- For extra crunch, toast the pecans before adding them to the mixture.
