Got extra cranberries? Try these Cranberry Bliss Bars or this Cranberry and Bacon Cream Cheese Appetizer next! ‘Tis the season for easy, gift-able treats like this Cranberry White Chocolate Fudge! I love giving fudge as an edible gift during the Christmas holiday, especially when it comes together as quickly as this one. You can easily make a double or triple batch of this white fudge (or mix up the flavors a bit with my Peppermint Bark Fudge or Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge with Pretzels) and have a variety to offer for cookie boxes potluck platters! You can mix and match the dried fruit and nuts according to your tastes, but I love the vivid pops of red and green in this white fudge. It’s so festive! For more sweet treats that would be great as a holiday gift, try my Soft Molasses Cookies Recipe, Chocolate Peppermint Icebox Cookies, this Easy Mint Chocolate Truffles Recipe, jars of my Easy Candied Nuts Recipe, or something from my 31 Best Christmas Cookie Recipes!

Ingredients Needed:

White Chocolate: use your favorite kind of white chocolate here, and a good quality white chocolate for the best results. Sweetened Condensed Milk: this is the sweet base of our creamy fudge. Use your favorite brand. Butter: use salted butter to enhance the flavors, or add a dash of salt to the mixture if you only have unsalted butter. Vanilla: vanilla extract adds a subtle warmth and works well with the sweet flavors in fudge. Cranberries: use dried cranberries for this recipe to add flavor and texture. Other dried fruit also works well! Pistachios: I love using pistachios in this fudge recipe, as they work well with white chocolate. You can swap them with any kind of chopped nuts you enjoy.

How to Make Easy White Chocolate Cranberry Fudge

This recipe comes together quickly! Full instructions are included in the recipe card below.

Tips and Notes

Double boiler. You can use a double boiler rather than the microwave to melt your ingredients together if you prefer, but it will take a little longer.  Rubber Spatula. You’ll want a rubber spatula to scrape the bowl clean as you pour the mixture into the pan. Garnish. Press extra cranberries or nuts into the top of the fudge before chilling it for more flavor and a better presentation. Gifting your fudge. If you’re planning to gift your fudge for the holidays, I’d recommend lining a cute holiday tin, box, or bag with colorful tissue paper and then parchment paper before putting the fudge in it. This will keep the fudge freshest and also look great!

White Chocolate Cranberry Fudge Recipe Variations

Add-ins. Add in some white chocolate chips, sprinkles (festive ones for Christmas time!), or even some orange zest. They’ll add more flavor, texture, and color, or match your special occasion! Try other flavor combinations. Make your own flavor of fudge to satisfy your sweet tooth. Simply change the kind of chocolate, dried fruit, and nuts you use in it. Try milk chocolate with raisins and peanuts, or dark chocolate with dried cherries and chopped almonds!
