Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- ¾ cup strawberry cake mix (90 grams)
- 2 cups white chocolate chips (340 grams)
- 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk (396 grams, 1 can)
Optional Topping
- Sprinkles, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the Cake Mix: Place the strawberry cake mix in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until the center reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer. This step ensures any bacteria in the raw flour is killed, making it safe to consume without baking.
- Melt the White Chocolate: In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips by microwaving in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each until smooth and fully melted.
- Combine Ingredients: Stir the heated strawberry cake mix and sweetened condensed milk into the melted white chocolate until you have a smooth, homogenous mixture.
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving some overhang for easy removal of the fudge later.
- Pour and Top: Pour the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared pan. Sprinkle your choice of sprinkles evenly over the top for color and texture.
- Chill to Set: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour, or until the fudge is firm and set.
Notes
- Storage: Store strawberry fudge in an airtight container. It can be kept at room temperature for up to 4 weeks, refrigerated for up to 6 weeks, or frozen for up to 3 months.
- You can customize the sprinkles or omit them entirely based on preference.
- Ensure cake mix is heated thoroughly to avoid raw flour consumption.
- Use good-quality white chocolate chips for the best texture and flavor.
