Description

This 5-Minute Lemon Fudge is a bright, refreshing no-bake dessert that blends creamy white chocolate with a pop of citrus from fresh lemon. It’s perfect for parties, gifts, or whenever you crave a quick, sweet treat.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • Yellow food coloring (optional, for a vibrant yellow color)
  • Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prep the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
  2. Melt: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the mixture is smooth and melted.
  3. Add Lemon: Stir in the lemon juice, lemon zest, and food coloring if desired.

  5. Serve: Once firm, cut into squares and dust with powdered sugar if desired.

Notes
