Recipes With a Twist
Candy Cane White Chocolate Fudge
Candy Cane White Chocolate Fudge
Today I made this festive peppermint fudge for my friends and family. The original recipe called for Vanilla chocolate chips but I made it with white chocolate chips to get the oh-so yummy peppermint-chocolate taste. As I am writing, I already ate couple of pieces and I am struggling hard to not to grab another one!
You need:
3 1/2 cups white chocolate baking chips (I used Nestle Tollhouse White Morsels)
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk – I used Eagle brand
1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract
1 cup crushed candy canes
A dash of red food coloring (you can use green as well!)
Optional:
1/2 cup semi sweet Chocolate Chips/baking chocolate squares
and/or 1/2 cups white chocolate baking chips
Colored or chocolate sprinkles
Colored Sugar Crystals
Crushed candy canes
Melting white chocolate chips with condensed milk
Line an 8 inch square baking dish with aluminum foil, and grease the foil.
Combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir frequently until almost melted, remove from heat and continue to stir until smooth.
When chips are completely melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy, stir in the Vanilla extract, food coloring, and candy canes. Spread evenly in the bottom of the prepared pan. Chill for 2-3 hours, then cut into pieces of desired shape.

The fudge tastes great without any additional toppings but in the spirit of holidays I played around with couple of different options:
1. Melt the chocolate chips/squares as per instructions
2. Coat half a piece with the melted chocolate and sprinkle desired topping such as colored sugar crystals, colored or chocolate sprinkles, crushed candy canes and so on.
3. Put the coated pieces on wax paper and let the chocolate get firm (about 15 minutes)
4. Enjoy! and store the leftovers in the refrigerator.

Here is a super simple and delicious holiday treat that as the name suggests looks like a ‘Haystack’. I have seen recipes with lot of different ingredients but I liked the one with pretzels and peanuts the best. It could be because that these two are also my personal favorites when I need something to

This one is for my father-in-law. He loves cookies but not the fact that most of them are loaded with sugar, refined flour and fats. As I stumbled upon this recipe, I remembered him and thought of giving it a try. I am not sure if I should categorize these as cookies or not. Contrary
Strawberry Milk Cake Pudding (Eggless)

It all started with trying to make a Tres Leches Cake. When I looked up the recipes, all of them called for eggs. Since I wanted to make an eggless dessert, I thought maybe this time I should just make a milk cake pudding. The pudding is not ‘Tres Leches’ as Tres Leches would mean

Strawberries are in season and I usually have some on hand at all times. It is almost impossible not to think about including this brightly colored and refreshing fruit in your everyday cooking. They are packed with lot more Vitamin C than some other popular citrus fruits and are a also great source of antioxidants,

By Heidemarie Swanepoel This is the type of pudding I make on a day when I have time to spare, and when I have planned well ahead. The mixing and preparing takes only minutes, but the sitting time, and the steaming time are far apart. How I manage this, is this: Just after lunch, I

By Heidemarie Swanepoel This was a staple dish many years ago, as a meal, or as a soup, and sometimes sweetened as a pudding. We enjoy it as a custard served with fruit or another pudding, or as a meal on a cold winters night. Ingredients: 4 cups milk 1/2 cup sugar (or to taste)
