Ingredients
Scale
- 22 oz (3 ½ cups) white chocolate chips
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tbsps unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp rum extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- Ground cinnamon (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preparation: Line an 8×8-inch pan with aluminum foil, pressing into corners with extended edges for easy removal.
- Chocolate Base: Melt white chocolate chips using heated sweetened condensed milk, whisking until a smooth, glossy mixture forms without any lumps.
- Flavor Infusion: Blend rum extract, melted butter, and a pinch of salt into the chocolate mixture, stirring until completely integrated and aromatic.
- Setting Process: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, smoothing the surface with a spatula and tapping to eliminate air bubbles. Sprinkle ground cinnamon across the top for an extra layer of warmth and complexity.
- Chilling and Serving: Refrigerate for 2-4 hours until firm, then lift out using foil edges, cut into 36 precise squares, and indulge in the decadent buttered rum-inspired confection.
Notes
- Foil Lining Strategy: Use heavy-duty aluminum foil with extended edges to easily lift and remove fudge without breaking delicate pieces.
- Chocolate Melting Tip: Ensure white chocolate chips are fully melted and smooth to prevent grainy texture in the final fudge.
- Rum Extract Balance: Start with less rum extract and gradually add more to control the intensity of flavor without overwhelming the sweet base.
- Chilling Precision: Allow full 4 hours of refrigeration for optimal texture and clean cutting, ensuring fudge sets completely before serving.
