Ingredients

Scale

For the Fudge:

  • 2 ½ cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup dried apple pieces, finely chopped

For the Caramel Swirl:

  • ½ cup caramel sauce
  • 1 tsp sea salt (optional, for salted caramel flavor)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Baking Dish:
    Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
  2. Melt the Fudge Base:
    In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and melted.
  3. Add Flavors:
    Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and chopped dried apples. Mix until evenly incorporated.
  4. Transfer to Dish:
    Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  5. Create the Caramel Swirl:
    Drizzle the caramel sauce over the fudge mixture. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the caramel into the fudge for a marbled effect. Sprinkle with sea salt if desired.
  6. Set the Fudge:
    Refrigerate the fudge for at least 4 hours or until firm.
  7. Slice and Serve:
    Remove the fudge from the dish using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into small squares and serve.

Notes

  • For a more intense apple flavor, consider using apple extract in addition to the dried apple pieces.
  • Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
  • You can use homemade or store-bought caramel sauce.
