How is your holiday prep going?
We finally got our tree this weekend. I think I had mine up weeks before Thanksgiving last year but we’ve just been so busy/we kept waiting for a tree lot to pop up around us and nothing ever did.
My closet has filled with Target boxes and I’ve watched The Holiday Calendar 17 times.
It doesn’t really feel like Christmas though. You know? It’s not super cold, I haven’t taken the dogs to see Santa, we haven’t even made gingerbread houses yet.
But it’s still the best time of the year!
My favorite, favorite, favorite thing this time of year is anything white chocolate peppermint. Coffee, chocolate covered pretzels, popcorn. I can’t get enough of it.
Ingredients
- Unsalted butter
- Sugar
- Sour cream
- White chocolate
- Marshmallow cream
- Peppermint extract
- Peppermints
Instructions
- Line a 9×9 inch pan with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick spray.
- In a large pot, heat butter, sugar, and sour cream over medium heat, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring frequently, until a candy thermometer reads 234F (soft ball stage), about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Stir in chopped white chocolate and marshmallow cream.
- Stir until everything is melted and combined. It will be thick and take awhile.
- Fold in peppermint extract and crushed peppermints.
- Pour into the prepared pan and rotate pan so the fudge reaches the corners.
- Chill at least 4 hours before cutting into 36 pieces.
Tips and Tricks
- You need a candy thermometer but don’t let that intimidate you! Just keep a close eye on it the entire time.
- When you add the white chocolate, it almost looks like it’s seizing up because it gets so thick but just keep stirring and it will all come together.
