1/2 cup (118 ml/4 oz)sweetened full fat condensed milk
2tbsp (6 g)lemon zest, plus additional for topping
Instructions
Line the bottom of an 8 x 4 inch loaf pan with parchment paper.
Add white chocolate chips and condensed milk to a large microwave safe mixing bowl. Heat chocolate in 15-30 second intervals, stirring in between with a spatula until chocolate is completely melted and the mixture is uniform. I like switching to a whisk to stir after the chocolate is mostly melted to ensure that you have a smooth, uniform mixture. You can also melt the chocolate and condensed milk on the stove using the double boiler method.
Stir in the zest. Once the zest is added, you will notice the fudge start to thicken up right away. Working quickly, add the mixture into the prepared pan.
Use a spatula to spread the fudge mixture evenly across the bottom of the pan and smooth the surface. Rap the bottom of the pan against your counter a few times to eliminate any air bubbles. If desired, sprinkle additional zest on the surface for decoration.
Place fudge into freezer until set (about 30 minutes). The fudge is ready when it feels firm to the touch. Bring the fudge to room temperature before cutting with a sharp knife. Store uneaten fudge in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
I cut my fudge into approximate 1 inch squares.
For a stronger lemon flavor you can add 1-2 drops of lemon extract.
