What is white fudge made of?
This white fudge recipe is made with chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla.
You will find other recipes on the web that can vary slightly for what ingredients have been used.
What is the secret to making fudge?
One thing I want to make sure to share is to ensure you fully melt the chocolate chips.
Don’t overheat the white chips in the microwave, or they can burn.
Stir every 20-30 seconds. Stir some, return to cooking, remove and stir, and repeat.
Variations To Recipe
- Change up the toppings you use. Sprinkle on colored sugar, mini chocolate chips, valentine’s gummies, etc.
- Stir some candies into the fudge batter or even cookie crumbles for added flavor. I created this sprinkle mix using small bags of Wilton Sprinkles from a local craft store. I used: Small Pink Hearts, Jumbo Red Balls, Jumbo Red Hearts, and a Gold/White Medley.
- You can swap the white chocolate chips with milk, dark, or even semi-sweet chocolate chip.

Why is it called fudge?
The true reason it is called fudge is not fully known.
But, it is said that a baker creating caramel fudged the recipe, which turned into a tasty mistake.
So this is why fudge is called fudge.
Who knows if that is the first reason, but a great dessert, no matter its name, is.
How should you store fudge?
This homemade fudge needs to be stored in the fridge in an airtight container.
It will keep for around 2-3 weeks. The fudge will begin to dry out after a bit, so eating it within the first two weeks is best.
If you don’t eat all your fudge, you can also freeze it.
Slice and then place in a freezer in an airtight container or freezer bag.
Then store for around three months.
