  • 2 cups white sugar
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp instant coffee granules or espresso powder
  • 0.5 cup caramel sauce
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • wooden spoon or spatula
  • 8x8-inch baking dish
  • parchment paper
  • sharp knife

Method
 

  1. Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine butter, sugar, and condensed milk. Stir until butter melts and sugar dissolves.
  3. Bring to a gentle boil and cook 5–7 minutes, stirring continuously, until thickened.
  4. Remove from heat, stir in white chocolate chips until smooth. Add coffee granules, vanilla, and salt.
  5. Pour half the mixture into pan, drizzle half the caramel, swirl lightly. Repeat with remaining fudge and caramel.
  6. Cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares.

Notes

Top with sea salt for a salted caramel twist, drizzle with dark chocolate, or fold in nuts for extra crunch. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 week, in the fridge for 3 weeks, or freeze for 2 months.
