Ingredients
  

2 cups white chocolate chips

1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk

2 tablespoons matcha green tea powder (plus extra for dusting)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Pinch of sea salt

Optional toppings: crushed pistachios, dried rose petals, or sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Prepare the Baking Dish: Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment with non-stick spray or a bit of butter.

    Melt the Chocolate: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, butter, and a pinch of sea salt. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth and creamy.

      Incorporate Matcha: Once melted, remove the saucepan from heat. Immediately whisk in the matcha powder and vanilla extract until there are no clumps and everything is well combined. The fudge mixture should have a vibrant green hue.

        Pour and Set: Quickly pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish. Use a spatula to spread it evenly in the pan. If desired, sprinkle a little extra matcha on top for presentation, or add optional toppings like crushed pistachios or dried rose petals.

          Chill: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.

            Cut and Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out of the pan using the parchment overhang. Place it on a cutting board and cut into small squares or rectangles.

              Enjoy!: Store any leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator. This fudge is perfect for gifting, or as a sweet treat for special occasions!
