Ingredients:

For the Caramel Layer:

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3/4 cup canned Dulce de Leche
  • 1/2 cup marshmallow cream

For the Coffee Layer:

  • 2 teaspoons instant coffee
  • 1 teaspoon hot water
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup marshmallow cream

For the Topping:

  • 1/4 cup dark chocolate melting wafers

Directions:

1. Prepare the Pan:

To ensure the fudge comes out easily, line an 8×8-inch baking dish with foil, leaving overhanging edges on the sides. This will help you lift the fudge out later. Set the pan aside.

2. Make the Caramel Layer:

  • In a medium saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips and butter over low to medium heat, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  • Once smooth, stir in the canned Dulce de Leche, mixing until the caramel mixture is creamy and well blended.
  • Add the marshmallow cream and stir until smooth.
  • Pour the caramel mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for about 30 minutes, or until it’s slightly set.

3. Make the Coffee Layer:

  • Dissolve the instant coffee in the hot water, then stir it into the sweetened condensed milk. Set this aside.
  • In a clean saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips and butter over low to medium heat.
  • Once smooth, stir in the coffee-infused sweetened condensed milk until the mixture is creamy.
  • Add the marshmallow cream and stir until everything is well combined and smooth.
  • Pour the coffee layer over the caramel layer in the baking dish, smoothing it out. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until the fudge is completely set.

4. Cut the Fudge:

  • Once the fudge has set, use the overhanging foil to lift it out of the pan. Peel off the foil carefully.
  • Use a hot knife (run the knife under hot water and dry it off) to cut the fudge into 36 small squares. Allow the squares to come to room temperature before adding the chocolate drizzle.

5. Add the Dark Chocolate Drizzle:

  • Melt the dark chocolate melting wafers in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir until smooth, microwaving for an additional 15 seconds if necessary.
  • Spoon the melted chocolate into a small ziplock bag and snip off one corner to create a piping bag. Drizzle the chocolate over the fudge squares.
  • Let the chocolate set before serving or storing the fudge.
