You are going to be amazed at how this red, white and blue fudge it is to make. This fudge is the perfect sweet treat for Independence day. I love the red, white, and blue colors in any dessert and having an excuse to use said colors.
If you are short on time, this fudge recipe is for you. Nobody can every believe how simple it is to make when I tell them how I made it. Utilizing white chocolate chips and marshmallow creme in the best way possible, this fudge is creamy and the supreme sweet treat!
Since this is a vanilla-based fudge we are discussing here today, you want to make sure to reach for quality white chocolate. Otherwise, it can lack a bit of flavor. I LOVE to use the Ghiradelli white chocolate chips whenever I’m using white chocolate in a recipe.
