1-Making white chocolate cranberry fudge is straightforward and fun, starting with simple prep work. Begin by measuring all your ingredients to keep things organized and smooth. This no-bake recipe fits right into my blog’s theme of easy, heat-free cooking.

2-First, line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper to cover the sides, which makes removal easy later. In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir to melt the chocolate using the residual heat; add another 30 seconds if needed until it’s smooth and creamy.

3-Next, stir in the vanilla extract, dried cranberries, and a pinch of salt to mix everything evenly. Quickly pour the mixture into your prepared pan and spread it out flat. If you want a pretty top, sprinkle on some sparkling sugar sprinkles and press them lightly into the fudge.

4-Let the fudge cool at room temperature for 2-3 hours, or pop it in the fridge to speed things up. Once it’s firm, cut it into squares for serving. This method takes about 10 minutes of prep, 1 minute of microwaving, and some cooling time, making it ideal for busy days.
