Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 14 ounces (396 grams) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 ½ cups (255 grams) white chocolate chips
- 1 ½ cups (255 grams) milk chocolate chips
Flavor and Color Enhancers:
- 1 teaspoon mint extract
- Green food coloring
Instructions
- Prepare an 8 by 8 inches (20 by 20 centimeters) baking dish by lining it with aluminum foil, allowing excess foil to hang over the sides for effortless extraction.
- Melt dark and white chocolate separately in microwave-safe bowls, pausing every 30 seconds to stir and prevent scorching.
- Divide the sweetened condensed milk equally between the two melted chocolate varieties, creating distinct flavor bases.
- Enhance the dark chocolate mixture with mint extract, stirring until thoroughly incorporated.
- Infuse the white chocolate mixture with green food coloring, blending until a uniform emerald hue is achieved.
- Artfully pour alternating dollops of dark and white chocolate mixtures into the prepared pan, creating an abstract, marbled pattern.
- Gently tap the pan against the countertop to eliminate air bubbles and help the mixtures settle evenly.
- Using a clean butter knife, delicately swirl the chocolate layers, creating subtle interconnected patterns without fully merging the colors.
- Transfer the pan to the refrigerator and allow the fudge to solidify completely overnight, ensuring a firm, smooth texture.
- Once set, carefully lift the fudge from the pan using the overhanging foil edges.
- Trim any uneven borders to create a clean, professional appearance.
- Slice the fudge block into four equal large squares, then subdivide each square into nine smaller, bite-sized pieces.
- Store the finished mint chocolate fudge in an airtight container, preserving its creamy consistency and vibrant flavors.
Notes
