White Chocolate Peppermint Fudge Christmas Tree Bites

White Chocolate Peppermint Fudge

Christmas Tree Bites


 
Items Needed:
 
2 bags Premium White Chocolate Chips
1   14 oz can of Sweetened Condensed Milk ( not evaporated milk)
1 dram peppermint extract oil
Red food color
 
Additional things needed: 
Microwave Safe Bowl
Measuring Cup
Spatula
Piping Bag
 



Combine White Chocolate Chips and Sweetened Condensed Milk in Microwave safe bowl.  Heat on full power for 1 min.  Remove and stir.  If lumps remain.  Continue to heat 20 seconds at a time until fully melted.  (Note:  the heat from the bowl will also aid in melting the chocolate.  Do not overheat)

Add 1/2 teaspoon Peppermint extract.  A little goes a long way!!!!!!!!!!!  Flavor to taste



Add 4 drops of red food coloring and stir to combine


Let fudge sit at room temperature until it thickens to the consistency of a thick icing.  This will take up to 45 min depending on your kitchen temperature.  If mixture is too warm... it will make your trees sag... if it is too hard.. it will be hard to pipe.  Once you put your fudge in your  piping bag you can warm it up if too thick by massaging the bag.  The heat from your hands will  soften your fudge.

Pipe your trees in an upward motion.  

Finish off with a white chocolate chip.  If further color is desired.. consider our Holiday Candy Writers.  Simply warm in a cup of water and snip off bottom to add detailed work.
