Ingredients
  

  • 250 g white chocolate chips about 1 cup
  • 100 g sweetened condensed milk about 1/2 cup
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • a pinch salt
  • 200 g candy corn for topping, about 1 cup

Equipment

  • Heatproof bowl
  • Saucepan
  • Spatula
  • Parchment paper
  • Knife or pizza cutter

Method
 

  1. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. Combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a heatproof bowl.
  3. Set the bowl over a saucepan filled with simmering water, making a double boiler, and stir constantly until the mixture is smooth, shiny, and fully melted.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing well until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the melted mixture into the prepared pan and use a spatula to spread it evenly into the corners, creating a smooth surface.
  6. Sprinkle the candy corn evenly over the top of the fudge, pressing gently to embed them into the surface while the mixture is still soft.
  7. Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for about 2 hours, or refrigerate for 1 hour until firm and easy to cut.
  8. Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into neat squares with a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
  9. Serve the colorful, creamy fudge on a platter and enjoy the festive crunch with every bite!

Notes

Ensure the water stays at a gentle simmer to prevent burning the chocolate. Press the candy corn into the fudge surface while still soft for best adhesion. Reheat the mixture gently if it becomes too thick during melting.
