Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

2 cups white baking chips
16 oz vanilla almond bark (divided into two 8 oz portions)
1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
1/8 tsp salt
1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Decoration

Green oil-based food coloring (about 8 drops)
Yellow star sprinkles (or yellow sprinkles)
Holiday sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

Prepare the pan and melt fudge base: Line an 8×8 inch square baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal. In a double boiler over medium heat, combine 2 cups white baking chips, 8 ounces vanilla almond bark, 1 can sweetened condensed milk, and 1/8 teaspoon salt. Stir regularly until the mixture melts smoothly, then remove from heat and stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
Set the fudge: Pour the smooth fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Let it sit undisturbed at room temperature for 4 to 6 hours, or refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours until fully set. Once solid, cut the fudge into 16 individual squares.
Melt almond bark for decoration: Heat the remaining 8 ounces of vanilla almond bark in 30-second intervals in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring in between until it is almost smooth. If small lumps remain, let residual heat finish melting them to avoid burning the chocolate.
Add color and drizzle over fudge: Stir about 8 drops of green oil-based food coloring into the melted almond bark. Transfer the colored almond bark into a zippered plastic bag and cut a small tip off one corner. Drizzle the colored almond bark over the fudge squares in a back-and-forth pattern, starting with small lines at the top and gradually increasing width to create the shape of a Christmas tree.
Decorate the tree: Place a yellow star sprinkle at the top of each fudge tree and add holiday sprinkles as desired to complete the festive look. Allow the decoration to set before serving.

Notes

Use oil-based food coloring to ensure smooth mixing with the almond bark without causing it to seize.
If you don’t have a double boiler, use a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water to gently melt ingredients.
For firmer fudge, refrigerate until fully set, especially in warmer climates.
Customize sprinkles based on your holiday theme or preference.
Store fudge in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
