Description

Ingredients

• 4 oz (1/2 cup) butter, cubed
• 14 oz (2 cups) granulated sugar
• 6 oz (3/4 cup) sour cream, not light
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 package (12 oz) white chocolate chips
• 1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow cream
• 1 1/2 tsp coconut flavor
• 1/2 tsp lime flavor
• Zest of 1 lime
• 1 drop green food coloring

Directions

• Preparation 1. Prepare an 8x8 pan by lining it with aluminum foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.2. In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, sour cream, salt, and butter over medium heat. Stir until the sugar and the butter melt, then insert a candy thermometer. Continue to cook, stirring frequently to prevent scorching, until the mixture reaches 236 F (113 C) degrees on the thermometer. This will take approximately 10-15 minutes. 3. Once the fudge reaches the proper temperature, take it off the heat and immediately add the white chocolate chips and the marshmallow cream. Stir constantly until the marshmallow cream is incorporated and the white chocolate melts, and the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.4. Working quickly, pour about a cup of the fudge into a bowl and set aside. Add the coconut flavoring to the remaining fudge in the saucepan, and pour it into the prepared pan.5. Quickly add the lime flavoring, lime zest, and green food coloring to the fudge in the bowl, and then pour it on top of the coconut layer, drizzling it over the whole pan, using a spatula if necessary to scrape it from the bowl. Take a table knife and run it through the fudge in a swirling motion, creating green and white ribbons of color on the surface. It is important that these steps happen very fast, otherwise the fudge will begin to set and will look grainy and lumpy when swirled.6. Allow the fudge to sit at room temperature until set, about 2-3 hours, or in the refrigerator for 1 hour. Remove the fudge from the pan by lifting the foil like handles. Cut into small one-inch squares to serve. This fudge will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks. For the best taste and texture, serve this fudge at room temperature.Click Here to View All Fudge Recipes!Click Here to View All Coconut Candy Recipes!
