SCD Recipe: White Fudge

This SCD White Chocolate Fudge is a nice, soft candy to serve for special occasions. It’s easy to make.

How do you make SCD fudge?

The key to this soft SCD fudge is making sweetened, condensed coconut milk (instructions in the recipe below) and beating the mixture to get the right consistency. It takes a litte time, but this fudge has such a cool, velvety texture, it’s totally worth it.

One important thing to remember is to keep the heat fairly low while making the candy. If it’s too hot it will burn or it will get too hard.

What kind of nut butter do you use to make SCD Fudge?

You can use any kind of nut butter you like. Cashew is the mildest flavor and will allow the fudge to taste most like the extract you use. Macadamia nut butter adds decadence to it. Almond or peanut butter also make a great fudge.

Update 2024 – I made this fudge using peanut butter in place of the cashew butter and it is delicious! Make the recipe the exact same way for a silky and rich peanut butter fudge.

How do you make sweetened, condensed coconut milk?

Making the condensed coconut milk couldn’t be easier. You just need a 14 oz. can of coconut milk and some honey. You bring the coconut milk to a boil, add the honey, reduce heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes until the liquid is reduced by half

How do you store SCD Fudge?

The best way to store this fudge is in the freezer. It doesn’t get too hard, even when frozen. If not in the freezer, it should be kept chilled in the refrigerator until serving. It shouldn’t be left out on a table for too long when serving because it will melt a bit and get a little sticky.
