Decadent Cherry Garcia White Chocolate Fudge
Ingredients:
2 cups white chocolate
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/2 cup maraschino cherries, halved
1/3 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)
Optional Substitutions:
Replace maraschino cherries with fresh pitted cherries for a less sweet version.
Use dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet for deeper chocolate flavor.
Add a pinch of sea salt to balance sweetness with a hint of savory depth.
Directions:
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring the edges hang over for easy removal.
In a large saucepan, combine white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk. Heat over low, stirring constantly until smooth and fully melted.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract to enhance the creamy flavor.
Fold in dried cherries and half of the halved maraschino cherries, blending evenly.
Pour the mixture into the prepared dish and spread evenly using a spatula.
Top with the remaining maraschino cherries and chocolate chips, gently pressing them into the surface.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the fudge is fully set.
Once set, lift from the pan using the parchment paper, slice into pieces, and serve.
