Irish Cream Fudge Alcohol-Free (Printable Version)

Smooth, creamy fudge blending white chocolate and Irish cream flavors, chilled to perfection for a sweet indulgence.

# What You Need:

→ Dairy

01 - 2 cups white chocolate chips
02 - 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
03 - 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed

→ Flavors

04 - 1/4 cup heavy cream
05 - 2 tbsp Irish cream-flavored coffee creamer (non-alcoholic)
06 - 1 tsp vanilla extract
07 - 1/2 tsp instant espresso powder (optional)

→ Sweeteners

08 - 1/4 cup powdered sugar
09 - Pinch of salt

# How-To Steps:

01 - Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on opposite sides for easy removal of the fudge later.
02 - Combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir continuously until completely melted and smooth, ensuring the chocolate doesn't scorch.
03 - Remove from heat and stir in heavy cream, Irish cream coffee creamer, vanilla extract, espresso powder if using, powdered sugar, and salt. Mix until the mixture is fully incorporated and silky smooth.
04 - Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Use a spatula to spread evenly and smooth the top surface.
05 - Refrigerate for a minimum of 2 hours until completely firm and set throughout.
06 - Lift the fudge from the pan using the parchment paper overhang. Cut into 36 equal squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.

# Helpful Tips:

01 -
  • The texture is impossibly smooth, like fudge from a fancy candy shop but without the tempering drama
  • Nobody believes theres zero alcohol until you show them the bottle of coffee creamer
02 -
  • Low and slow heat is non-negotiable. High heat makes white chocolate separate into an oily mess that never recovers
  • The fudge needs at least 2 hours in the fridge, but overnight is even better for clean cuts
03 -
  • Add toasted hazelnuts on top before chilling for a homemade Ferrero Rocher vibe
  • Wrap individual squares in wax paper for an instant gift that looks professionally made
