White Chocolate Pistachio Cherry Fudge Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE CHERRY FUDGE

Steps:

• Grease an 8x8-inch square baking dish.
• Melt chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring often, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cherries and almond extract. Pour fudge into prepared baking dish and spread into a smooth layer. Cover and refrigerate until firm, 1 to 2 hours.
• Cut fudge into 64 1-inch square pieces.

WHITE CHOCOLATE BAKEWELL (CHERRY AND ALMOND) FUDGE

Steps:

• Put the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan and warm over a very low heat, stirring continuously until the chocolate has melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from the heat.
• Stir in the almond extract and then the glace cherries.
• Line a loaf pan with cling film (saran wrap) and pour the warm fudge mixture inches.
• Chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours, until completely set (ideally overnight).
• Then turn out of the pan and serve (this is a soft fudge so is best served slightly chilled).
• NB If desired, you can quarter extra glace cherries and scatter them over the top of the fudge before chilling to make it look a little more colourful!

PISTACHIO FUDGE

Steps:

• Line an 8x8 square baking pan with foil. Set aside.
• In a microwave safe large bowl, melt chocolate chips, butter and water, in microwave, on high for 1 minute. Remove from microwave and stir until chocolate chips are fully melted. If needed heat for an additional 30 seconds.
• Stir dry pudding mix to chocolate mixture. Once completely combined, stir in sugar, one cup at a time. Fold in shelled pistachios.
• Press fudge into prepared pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours to set.
• Remove fudge from pan and remove foil. Use a sharp knife to cut cleanly into squares. Store in an airtight container.

PISTACHIO WHITE CHOCOLATES

Steps:

• For the pistachio white chocolate butter: Combine the pistachios, white chocolate chips, sugar, salt, almond extract and vanilla in a food processor and blend, scraping the sides occasionally, until very creamy and spreadable, about 10 minutes.
• For the white hot chocolate: Gently heat the milk in a saucepan over medium heat and whisk in 4 to 6 tablespoons of the pistachio butter (4 tablespoons for a nice, light, not-too-sweet situation, or 6 for a very rich desserty sitch!). Save the remaining pistachio butter for another use.

FIVE MINUTE WHITE CHOCOLATE FUDGE WITH PISTACHIO AND CRANBERRIES

Steps:

• Pour the chips, condensed milk and vanilla into a medium saucepan. Put the pan on the stove and turn the heat to low. (Stir occasionally while you prepare pan).
• Butter an 8-inch round cake pan with softened butter. (I found it easier to remove from the pan if you lined bottom with parchment paper and buttered the sides).
• Cover the empty condensed milk can with plastic wrap and put it in the center of the round cake pan.
• Stir the chips and milk until they melt together, about 3 minutes. Stir in pistachios and dried cranberries. Scoop the fudge into the cake pan all around the plastic-covered can in the center to form a wreath or ring shape. Let it be all bumpy on top. If the fudge moves the can off center, move it back in place.
• Cut the red cherries in half with scissors and the green cherries into quarters. Use the green pieces to make leaves and the red to make holly berries. Decorate the fudge with several groups of holly berry sprigs made from the cherries and garnish with pistachios between the sprigs.
• Put the fudge in the refrigerator and chill until firm (about a half hour). Remove the can from the center, then loosen the sides and bottom of the fudge with a spatula (you won't need to do this if you took my advice about the parchment paper!). Cut the fudge into thin slices to serve.

CHERRY-PISTACHIO BARK

Steps:

• In a small glass bowl, microwave cherries with water on high for 2 minutes; drain, and set aside.
• In a separate microwave-safe bowl, microwave chocolate chips and candy coating together until melted and smooth, stirring occasionally. Stir in cherries and chopped pistachios, and spread into a wax paper-lined 15x10 inch pan. Chill for 1 hour, or until firm.
• Cut into 1 inch squares, and enjoy. Store unused portion in an air-tight container.

TART CHERRY AND PISTACHIO FUDGE

Steps:

• Microwave semi-sweet chocolate and 3/4 cup of the sweetened condensed milk in medium microwavable bowl on HIGH 2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 1 minute. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Stir in pistachios, vanilla and cayenne pepper. Spread in foil-lined 8-inch square pan. Set aside.
• Microwave white chocolate and remaining sweetened condensed milk in medium microwavable bowl on HIGH 1 1/2 minutes or until chocolate is almost melted, stirring after 1 minute. Stir until chocolate is completely melted. Spread evenly over semi-sweet chocolate layer. Sprinkle cherries evenly over top, pressing cherries lightly into the fudge.
• Refrigerate 2 hours or until fudge is set. Use foil to lift out of pan onto cutting board. Cut into 36 pieces.

WHITE CHOCOLATE PISTACHIO CHERRY FUDGE

Steps:

• Line a 9-by-13-inch pan with foil. Heat the marshmallows, sugar, cream, butter and salt in a medium saucepan set over medium heat, stirring constantly until the marshmallows melt and the sugar dissolves. Remove the saucepan from the heat, add the white chocolate chips, vanilla and almond extracts and stir until the chips are completely melted.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, and scatter the cherries and pistachios over the top. Lightly press the toppings into the fudge. Let cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour. Cut into 1-inch squares.
