Rich and fruity, this fudge takes its flavor cues from the classic Italian Christmas bread panettone. It also requires minimal work--just mix the ingredients, pour into a loaf pan, and let set in the refrigerator. Then slice and box the old-fashioned candy-shop way, with a knife to encourage instant gratification.

FIVE MINUTE WHITE CHOCOLATE FUDGE WITH PISTACHIO AND CRANBERRIES



Five Minute White Chocolate Fudge With Pistachio and Cranberries image

Saw Rachael Ray and Oprah make this on an Oprah holiday party show. It took me 7 minutes, but who's counting! Try other variations such as the original Recipe #146361 and Recipe #146387.

Provided by SharleneW

Categories     Candy

Time 40m

Yield 2 pounds

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups white chocolate chips (1 12-ounce bag plus half of another)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (save the can)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups shelled natural pistachio nuts
1/2 cup dried sweetened cranberries
candied red cherries
candied green cherries, to decorate top (like holly)

Steps:

  • Pour the chips, condensed milk and vanilla into a medium saucepan. Put the pan on the stove and turn the heat to low. (Stir occasionally while you prepare pan).
  • Butter an 8-inch round cake pan with softened butter. (I found it easier to remove from the pan if you lined bottom with parchment paper and buttered the sides).
  • Cover the empty condensed milk can with plastic wrap and put it in the center of the round cake pan.
  • Stir the chips and milk until they melt together, about 3 minutes. Stir in pistachios and dried cranberries. Scoop the fudge into the cake pan all around the plastic-covered can in the center to form a wreath or ring shape. Let it be all bumpy on top. If the fudge moves the can off center, move it back in place.
  • Cut the red cherries in half with scissors and the green cherries into quarters. Use the green pieces to make leaves and the red to make holly berries. Decorate the fudge with several groups of holly berry sprigs made from the cherries and garnish with pistachios between the sprigs.
  • Put the fudge in the refrigerator and chill until firm (about a half hour). Remove the can from the center, then loosen the sides and bottom of the fudge with a spatula (you won't need to do this if you took my advice about the parchment paper!). Cut the fudge into thin slices to serve.

Tips:

  • To ensure the smoothest fudge, use a good quality white chocolate that contains at least 30% cocoa butter.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the fudge by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the fudge forms a soft ball, it is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcook the fudge, as it will become too thick and crumbly.
  • Once the fudge has set, cut it into small pieces and store it in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
  • Fudge can be stored for up to 2 weeks, but it is best enjoyed within a few days of making it.

White chocolate fudge with cranberries and candied citrus is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion.
