Description

Grinch fudge is the perfect holiday treat! A rich white-chocolate fudge is flavored with vanilla, dyed a lime green, and decorated with red candy hearts. Prep these easy Grinch desserts in 20 minutes then chill until set.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 cups Ghirardelli white chocolate chips, from 2 (11-ounce) bags
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, (NOT evaporated milk)
  • 1 teaspoon clear vanilla extract*
  • 2 drops AmeriColor green gel food coloring**
  • 16 large red candy hearts

Instructions

Recipe Prep: Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper.

  1. Add the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk (use a skinny spatula to scrape out every last drop) to a medium saucepan set over medium-low heat. Warm the mixture slowly, stirring often, until it’s melted and smooth. Be careful not to let it burn!
  2. Stir in the vanilla extract and green food coloring. 
  3. Transfer the Grinch fudge mixture to the prepared pan, and spread it into a smooth, even layer. Work quickly as the chocolate will begin to set as soon as you remove it from heat. While the fudge is still soft, press red candy hearts onto the surface. I put the hearts in 4 rows of 4, so that when I slice the Grinch dessert each square will have 1 heart. Put the pan into the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours, or until it’s firm and completely set.
  4. Once the fudge has set, use the edges of the parchment paper to lift it out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Use a sharp, flat-bladed knife to cut it into squares. Arrange the Grinch treats on a platter. Serve and enjoy.

Notes

*Clear vanilla extract: For best results, use clear vanilla. Not amber-colored vanilla. But if amber-colored vanilla is all you have on hand, it will work with the Avocado and Electric Green colors.

**AmeriColor Gel food coloring: For the perfect Grinch color we use 1 drop AmeriColor Avocado, and 1 drop AmeriColor Electric Green. However, if you prefer (super-bright) neon-green colored fudge, use clear vanilla extract and 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Electric Green. 

If your fudge is too sweet: Add a pinch of salt to tamp down sweetness and balance the flavor.
