Great gifts for teachers and neighbors

To make the gifts, I just bought party favor bags, stack the fudge piece and tie up with festive gift tags, how easy is that?! Last year I made a white chocolate cranberry & pistachio bark that is also very easy and what about enjoy a delicious cup of  white chocolate hot chocolate, that would be delicious with any of these treats.

Ingredients

  • 28 ounces (800 grams) sweetened condensed milk
  • 32 ounces (907) baking white chocolate chips

  • 4 ounces shelled (113 grams) pistachios, unsalted

  2. Place into an 8 x 8-inch (20 x 20 cm) square baking dish, one in each direction with some overlapping.. This is to help remove the fudge easily from the pan. If you increased the ingredients for more servings, you will need to use a larger pan.
  3. To a saucepan add the condensed milk over medium low heat and bring to a very low simmer, cook for 5 minutes.
  4. Turn off the heat and allow to cool a little. Add the white chocolate in small batches while stirring to slowly incorporate. Continue to stir until the chocolate has melted. Add the vanilla extract, cranberries and pistachios, stir to mix well. Pour the mix into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set. 
  6. Once set, cut into 2 x 2 inch squares. If it is too hard to cut, leave at a room temperature for 30 minutes.
