Microwave Pistachio Fudge is a quick and easy no-bake dessert that blends creamy white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk with the nutty crunch of pistachios. Perfect for holidays or anytime indulgence, this fudge requires minimal effort and offers a rich, sweet treat topped with pistachios for extra texture and flavor.

Ingredients

Scale

For the Fudge

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips (or vanilla baking chips)
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup pistachios (shelled and roughly chopped)
  • Optional: 1/2 cup additional pistachios for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8 inch square baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to easily lift the fudge out once set.
  2. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave on 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the mixture is completely melted and smooth, approximately 1.5 to 2 minutes total.
  3. Mix in Flavors: Stir the vanilla extract and chopped pistachios into the melted chocolate mixture until everything is evenly combined.
  4. Pour and Set: Transfer the fudge mixture to the prepared pan and spread evenly. Optionally, sprinkle additional chopped pistachios on top for garnish. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
  5. Cut and Serve: Using the parchment paper overhang, lift the set fudge from the pan and cut it into small squares or rectangles before serving.

Notes

  • Substitute pistachios with almonds or walnuts for a nut variation.
  • Add a pinch of sea salt or almond extract for enhanced flavor.
  • Store fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
  • Freeze fudge for up to 3 months, wrapped well in plastic and foil.
  • Use milk chocolate chips instead of white chocolate for a different taste.
  • For a colorful twist, add a few drops of food coloring to the melted mixture.
