Bubblegum Cloud Fudge (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ For the Fudge Base

01 - 21¼ oz white chocolate, chopped
02 - ¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
03 - 4½ oz unsalted butter

→ For Flavoring and Color

04 - 1 tsp bubblegum flavoring
05 - 2 tsp vanilla extract
06 - 3 drops white food gel
07 - 3 drops pink food gel

→ For Mix-ins

08 - 1 cup mini marshmallows
09 - ¼ cup rainbow confetti sprinkles

# Instructions:

01 - Line a 9 by 9 inch square pan with baking paper or parchment, leaving some hanging over the edges so you can lift the fudge out easily later. Set it aside.
02 - Put the white chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and butter in a large microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 40 seconds at a time, stirring with a spatula after each interval, until everything is melted and smooth. This usually takes 2 to 3 cycles.
03 - Stir in the bubblegum flavoring and vanilla extract until well combined. Add the white and pink food gel drops and swirl them through with your spatula to create a marbled pink and white effect. Don't overmix or you'll lose the pretty swirls.
04 - Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and rainbow sprinkles, reserving a few sprinkles to scatter on top if you like.
05 - Pour the fudge mixture into your prepared pan and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the reserved rainbow sprinkles on top if using. Tap the pan gently on the counter a few times to remove any air bubbles.
06 - Put the pan in the fridge and let it chill for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until the fudge is completely set and firm to the touch.
07 - Lift the fudge out using the parchment paper overhang. Cut it into small squares with a sharp knife, wiping the knife clean between cuts for neat edges. Store in an airtight container.

# Notes:

01 - Bubblegum flavoring can be found in baking supply stores or online. It gives this fudge that nostalgic bubblegum taste.
02 - Don't skip the food gel - it creates that fun pink and white swirled look that makes this fudge so pretty.
03 - The marshmallows add little pockets of fluffy sweetness throughout.
04 - This fudge is super sweet, so cut small pieces - a little goes a long way.
05 - Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or at room temperature for up to a week.
06 - This makes a fun gift packaged in cellophane bags tied with colorful ribbons.
