Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips Use high-quality for best results.
  • 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup amaretto liqueur Sweetened almond liqueur.
  • 1 cup chopped pistachios Can substitute with almond slivers or walnuts.
  • a pinch salt Enhances flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
  2. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and melted.
  3. Remove the mixture from heat and stir in the amaretto liqueur and a pinch of salt.
  4. Gently fold in the chopped pistachios until evenly distributed throughout the fudge batter.
  5. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Allow to cool at room temperature for about 2 hours or until set.
  6. Once cooled, remove the fudge from the pan using the parchment overhang and cut into small squares.

Notes

Use high-quality white chocolate chips for smoother texture. Stir continuously while melting to prevent burning. Let fudge cool completely before cutting for best results. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
