Description
Creamy, rich, and with a sweet banana twist, this Banana Fudge is the perfect no-bake treat. It blends the mellow flavor of ripe banana with silky white chocolate, creating a dessert that’s both nostalgic and indulgent. Great for parties, gifting, or a sweet bite just for you!
Ingredients
- 1 ripe banana, mashed
- 2 cups white chocolate chips (or substitute milk/dark chocolate for a richer flavor)
- ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup chopped nuts (optional, for texture)
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare your pan:
Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving a bit of overhang on the sides for easy removal later.
2️⃣ Melt the chocolate:
In a medium saucepan over low-medium heat, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Stir constantly until everything is melted and smooth.
3️⃣ Mix in banana and flavorings:
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the mashed banana, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated. If using nuts, fold them in now.
4️⃣ Transfer and smooth:
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly and smooth the top. Gently tap the pan on the counter to eliminate air bubbles.
5️⃣ Chill to set:
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set.
6️⃣ Slice and enjoy:
Lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment/foil overhang. Cut into squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- Make sure your banana is very ripe for the best flavor and smoothest texture.
- Want a twist? Try adding a pinch of cinnamon or swapping the white chocolate for a combo of dark and milk chocolate.
- These make great edible gifts—wrap them in wax paper squares or decorative boxes!
