Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 (16 oz) can strawberry frosting
- 1 (12 oz) bag white chocolate chips
- 2/3 cup pecans, chopped
Instructions
- Prepare the Ingredients: Gather the strawberry frosting, white chocolate chips, and chopped pecans. Make sure the pecans are finely chopped to evenly distribute in the fudge.
- Melt the White Chocolate Chips: In a heat-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips using a microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring well between each interval until smooth and fully melted. Alternatively, melt the chocolate chips over a double boiler on the stovetop, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Add Strawberry Frosting: Stir the entire can of strawberry frosting into the melted white chocolate thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and blended, ensuring a consistent strawberry flavor throughout the fudge.
- Incorporate Pecans: Fold in the chopped pecans evenly into the strawberry-white chocolate mixture, distributing the nuts throughout for delightful crunch.
- Pour into Pan: Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Pour the fudge mixture into the pan and spread it evenly using a spatula.
- Chill to Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Slice and Serve: Once fully set, remove the fudge from the pan by lifting the parchment paper. Cut the fudge into 24 small squares using a sharp knife. Serve chilled or at room temperature for the best texture and flavor experience.
Notes
- For best results, use full-fat white chocolate chips to achieve a creamy texture.
- Chilling time can be extended to overnight for a firmer fudge.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
- Ensure pecans are fresh and can be lightly toasted before adding for enhanced flavor if desired.
- Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry to make clean cuts.
