Decadent bites of creamy white chocolate fudge coated in crushed candy canes, perfect for holiday celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 6 to 8 standard-size candy canes, crushed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a slight overhang on two sides for easy removal after chilling.
  2. Melt the Base: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, butter, and a pinch of salt. Stir constantly until everything is fully melted and smooth.
  3. Add Flavor: Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and peppermint extract. Mix thoroughly to ensure even flavor distribution.
  4. Chill the Fudge: Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. Cover and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours, until firm.
  5. Crush the Candy: While the fudge chills, place the candy canes in a zip-top bag and crush them.
  6. Form the Snowballs: Once chilled, use a small scoop or spoon to portion the fudge into bite-sized balls, rolling them until smooth.
  7. Coat in Candy: Roll each ball into the crushed candy canes until well coated.
  8. Final Chill: Place the coated snowballs on a tray and refrigerate for an additional 15 minutes to firm up the coating.

Notes

Great for holiday gatherings or as gifts. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.
