Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare Your Slow Cooker: Lightly grease the inside of a 3-4 quart slow cooker with butter or non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
Combine Ingredients: Pour the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk into the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
Melt on Low: Set the slow cooker to low heat. Cover and let the mixture melt slowly for about 45-60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure smoothness. Patience is key—this avoids burning and keeps the fudge silky.
Add the Baileys: Once the chocolate is fully melted and smooth, stir in the Baileys Irish Cream. Blend until fully incorporated. Taste and adjust the Baileys for stronger flavor if desired.
Set the Fudge: Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper. Pour the fudge into the pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until firm.
Slice and Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out using the parchment paper. Cut into small squares and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Tips for Perfect Fudge
Consistency Control: If your fudge seems too soft after refrigeration, return it to the slow cooker on low for a few minutes, stir, and let it firm up again.
Flavor Twists: Add a teaspoon of espresso powder for a mocha twist, or swirl in caramel for extra richness.
Presentation Matters: Wrap individual squares in wax paper or decorative tins for a festive gift.
