Things You Will Need
- A medium-sized saucepan
- Spatula
- 8 by 8 inch baking dish

- Knife to cut
How to do it
- Get the chocolate to melt.
Put white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth. - Put in the apples and spices.
Take off the heat and mix in the cinnamon, apple pie spice, vanilla extract, salt, and chopped dried apples until everything is well mixed.
- Put the mixture in the pan.
Put parchment paper in an 8×8-inch baking dish, then spread the fudge out evenly. - Put on the toppings.
Add more cinnamon and dried apple pieces on top for more flavor. - Set and chill.
Put in the fridge for at least two hours or until it is firm. - Slice and serve.
Lift the fudge out with the parchment paper once it has set, cut it into squares, and enjoy!
Tips from the Pros
- Use apples that have dried! Fresh apples have too much water in them, which can make the fudge too soft.
- Toast the cinnamon! To get the best flavor, heat it in a dry pan for 30 seconds.
- Let it sit for a while. For the best fudgy texture, chill for at least two hours before cutting.
- Add caramel and mix it in. To make a caramel apple twist, drizzle caramel on top before putting it in the fridge.
- Do something extra special! For a pie-like texture, add a crushed graham cracker crust before pouring the fudge.
Changes and Substitutions
- If you don’t want to use dairy, use coconut condensed milk and dairy-free white chocolate.
- For a stronger apple flavor, add ½ tsp of apple extract.
- For a crunchy version, add chopped pecans or walnuts.
- To make it sweeter, add a little maple syrup before putting it in the fridge.
Storing and using leftovers
- Put it in the fridge in an airtight container for up to a week.
- Want to keep it for longer? You can freeze the fudge for up to three months. Before serving, let it thaw.
