Description

This Pistachio Fudge Recipe is a rich and creamy treat combining luscious white chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and instant pistachio pudding mix, studded with crunchy salted pistachios. Easy to prepare with simple microwave melting and no baking required, this fudge sets up firm for perfect squares that are ideal for gifting or snacking.

Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

  • 3 cups white chocolate chips (18 ounces)
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 (3.4-ounce) package JELLO instant pistachio pudding mix

Add-ins

  • 1 1/2 cups salted pistachios (190 grams)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pan: Line an 8-inch square baking pan with non-stick foil, parchment paper, or grease it well to ensure easy removal of the fudge later.
  2. Combine Chocolate and Condensed Milk: In a large microwave-safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk together.
  3. Microwave Mixture: Heat the bowl in the microwave at 70% power for 90 seconds. Let it sit for a couple of minutes to allow residual heat to soften the chocolate, then stir thoroughly until smooth. If chunks remain, microwave in additional 30-second intervals and stir until fully melted and silky.
  4. Add Pudding Mix and Pistachios: Stir in the dry JELLO instant pistachio pudding mix until fully incorporated. Then fold in the salted pistachios evenly throughout the mixture.
  5. Transfer to Pan: Pour the fudge mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan and spread it out smoothly.
  6. Set the Fudge: Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for several hours until firm, or accelerate setting by refrigerating it.
  7. Cut and Serve: Once set, cut the fudge into 16 or 25 squares, depending on the desired size.
  8. Storage: Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or refrigerated for up to 2 weeks to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • You can use either salted or unsalted pistachios, but salted adds a nice balance to the sweetness.
  • If you prefer a firmer fudge, refrigerate it for faster setting.
  • Make sure to stir the chocolate mixture well after microwaving to avoid lumps.
  • Use parchment or non-stick foil to lift out the fudge easily for cutting and serving.
  • Fudge can be stored at room temperature in an airtight container for up to two weeks or refrigerated for longer freshness.
