White chocolate fudge is one candy I rarely make at home, if any, and often only upon request. It’s not that I don’t like white chocolate fudge – on the contrary – it’s actually a great treat that is stunningly beautiful if you mix in colorful ingredients, but I simply prefer dark chocolate fudge regularly, as it is less sweet.
Anyway, I recently made an especially colorful white chocolate fudge with pistachios and cranberries. It’s one of the easiest (really – so easy!) candies you can make at home, as it really takes only a few minutes of preparation. After cooling, you get a candy that can be cut into thin slices, and it is beautiful, festive and always a crowd pleaser. Perfect for hosting and whenever you need to make a quick dessert!

White Chocolate Fudge with Pistachio and Cranberry
Ingredients:
- 300 grams white chocolate
- 200 grams (1/2 cup) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 tsp. salt
- 100 grams roasted pistachios
- 100 grams cranberries
- Chop the chocolate and put in a small pot.
- Add condensed milk and salt and cook on a low to medium flame until everything melts and gets thick texture.
- Remove from heat and add pistachios and cranberries. Mix until combined.
- Pour the mixture into the pan and straighten the top.
- Freeze the fudge for about an hour or until set.
- Cut into thin slices and serve.
- Keep the fudge in the refrigerator for up to a week in a sealed container.
- The fudge can be frozen for up to two months in a sealed container.
- Instead of cranberries you can use dried blueberries.
- Instead of pistachios, you can use any other type of nuts that you like (toasted).
- It is important not to omit the salt because it balances the sweetness.
