Coffee Caramel Fudge
A rich, chewy coffee-infused caramel fudge that melts in your mouth and disappears from the fridge faster than your self-restraint.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- ½ cup heavy cream
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup brewed espresso strong
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ cup caramel sauce
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
Instructions
- Line an 8x8-inch pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- Heat butter, condensed milk, brown sugar, and espresso in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until sugar dissolves.
- Bring to a simmer and cook until it reaches 235°F (soft-ball stage). Use a candy thermometer for accuracy.
- Remove from heat and stir in caramel sauce, vanilla, and salt. Mix until smooth.
- Add white chocolate chips and stir until melted and glossy.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
- Let cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Additional Notes/Tips
- Use dark espresso for a bold coffee kick.

- Drizzle extra caramel on top for an over-the-top finish.
