Make creamy, festive peppermint fudge using white chocolate and condensed milk. This no-bake recipe is simple, requires few ingredients, and is perfect for holiday gifting or dessert trays.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup crushed candy canes, plus extra for topping

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. Lightly grease the paper.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips. Stir constantly until the chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is smooth. Do not let it boil.
  3. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the peppermint extract and vanilla extract until fully combined.
  4. Gently fold in 1/2 cup of the crushed candy canes.
  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly.
  6. Sprinkle the remaining crushed candy canes over the top of the fudge. Gently press them into the surface.
  7. Refrigerate the fudge for at least 3 hours, or until firm enough to slice cleanly.
  8. Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge from the pan. Cut into small squares before serving.

Notes

  • For a swirl effect, melt white chocolate and semi-sweet chocolate separately. Pour half the white mixture into the pan, drizzle with half the dark chocolate, swirl gently with a knife, then repeat with the remaining chocolate layers before topping with candy canes.
  • If you prefer a stronger mint flavor, increase the peppermint extract to 1 1/2 teaspoons.
  • Store this homemade peppermint treats in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
