For the Crust
- 2 Tbsp Butter, melted
- 4 Whole Graham Crackers, crushed
For the Fudge
- 12 oz White Chocolate Chips
- 16 oz Ready-Made Cream Cheese Frosting, not whipped
- Prepare the Dish: Line an 8×6 inch dish with parchment paper. Use some of the melted butter to generously grease the parchment-lined pan to prevent sticking.
- Make the Crust: In a bowl, crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix these crumbs thoroughly with the melted butter until well combined. Press this crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared dish to form an even crust layer.
- Melt the Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a large glass bowl or measuring cup. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
- Add and Mix Frosting: Add the ready-made cream cheese frosting to the melted white chocolate. Continue microwaving, initially in 30-second intervals for the first two heats, then switch to 15-second intervals, stirring between each, until the mixture is fully melted and thoroughly combined without boiling or cooking.
- Assemble the Fudge: Pour the smooth chocolate and frosting mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust in the dish. Gently tap the dish a few times on the counter to release any air bubbles trapped inside.
- Chill and Set: Allow the fudge to cool on the counter until it reaches room temperature, then place it in the refrigerator to chill and set completely before serving.
Notes
- Be careful not to overheat the white chocolate and frosting to avoid burning or curdling.
- Use a silicone spatula for stirring to ensure smooth mixing and scraping of the bowl.
- For cleaner slices, chill the fudge thoroughly and use a sharp knife warmed with hot water between cuts.
- This recipe is best stored in the refrigerator to maintain texture and freshness.
- You can add chopped nuts or sprinkles on top before chilling for extra texture and decoration.
