Ingredients:

• 1 cup (200g) mini chocolate chips
• 1/2 cup (111g) salted butter, softened
• 1/4 cup (58g) granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup (123g) brown sugar
• 2 tbsp milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups (228g) all-purpose flour, heat-treated
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup (200g) Ghirardelli white chocolate chips
• 1 can (14 oz/193ml) sweetened condensed milk

Directions:

1. Prepare the Pan
   Start by placing the mini chocolate chips in the freezer to chill. This helps prevent them from melting when mixed into the fudge. Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, ensuring the paper extends over the sides for easy removal later. Set the pan aside.
2. Heat-Treat the Flour
   To make the flour safe for consumption, measure out the all-purpose flour into a medium-sized bowl. Microwave the flour for 30 seconds to 1 minute, stirring halfway through, until it reaches 165°F (74°C). Set the heat-treated flour aside to cool slightly.
3. Make the Cookie Dough
   In a stand mixer or using an electric hand mixer, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and fully combined. Gradually add in the heat-treated flour and salt, mixing until everything is well incorporated. Set the cookie dough mixture aside.
4. Melt the White Chocolate
   In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the Ghirardelli white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave the mixture for 2 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
5. Combine the Mixtures
   Pour the melted white chocolate mixture into the bowl with the cookie dough. Stir until the two mixtures are well combined and smooth.
6. Add the Chocolate Chips
   Quickly fold in the frozen mini chocolate chips, making sure to work swiftly so they don’t melt into the fudge mixture.
7. Chill the Fudge
   Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared 8×8-inch pan. Spread it evenly using a spatula, and then refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until it is firm to the touch.
8. Serve and Store
   Once the fudge is set, lift it out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut it into 16 squares. Store the fudge in the refrigerator until you’re ready to serve. Enjoy the creamy, rich flavor of this delightful treat!
