This is how baba ghanoush is traditionally made. Baked eggplant is combined with tahini sauce, lemon juice, and garlic in this eggplant dip. For a tasty, light appetizer, dip in some pita bread.

Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- ⅓ cup butter
- 2 teaspoons rum flavoring
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg, or to taste
- 1 cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Craisins®)
- 1 cup walnut pieces
Instructions
- Grease a 9-inch square pan with 1 teaspoon butter.
- Combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and 1/3 cup butter in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in the microwave until white chocolate starts to melt, about 3 minutes. Stir until smooth. Continue to microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until chocolate is completely melted.
- Stir rum flavoring, vanilla extract, and nutmeg into the white chocolate mixture. Fold in cranberries and walnut pieces. Pour fudge into the buttered baking pan, spreading it evenly into the corners.
- Let fudge cool until set, 8 hours to overnight.
- Try using dried apricot pieces or other dried fruit instead of the cranberries. If using dried apples, try using apple pie spice or ground cinnamon in place of some or all of the nutmeg.
- Nutmeg varies a lot. You usually need less if you’re grating it fresh than if you’re using a five-year-old jar of ground nutmeg.

The fudge was easy to make tasted good but didn’t firm up like fudge should ,ended up rolling into balls coating in chocolate crumbs and calling it REINDEER DROPPINGS ..very yummy
I added a 1/4 tsp of cayenne to it to give it a hint of spice.
Soooo good, and so easy. I added even more walnuts and cranberries the second time. It was a big hit!
These are excellent as is! Next time, I will roughly chop the cranberries to make it easier to slice and put them in the fridge before slicing to firm it up and have less mess. I might try them with sliced almonds and amaretto. I added it to the recipe and they were outstanding!
This is easy, and turns out really well. You may want to line the pan with wax paper first to make it easier to remove after cooling. Also, I changed the rum extract to almond extract, and we liked that batch a bit more. It’s very rich, so you may want to cut tiny pieces.
yum
This was just okay. I find the taste of condensed milk to be a bit too dominant in this recipe. Won’t make again.
Will definitely make again!
No nutmeg for this cook! I added butter rum flavor and it was awesome! Will def make again with another flavor as the condensed milk has its own strong flavor.
I will not make again…While this recipe is extremely easy to make it doesn’t have the rich vibrant flavor of cooked fudge that I grew up with. The Sweetened condensed milk is the predominant taste.
This is good fudge. Very colorful for holidays. Next time though I wil put foil in pan to make it ashier to cut into small squares . Very difficult to get out of pan and stay attractive,. Very rich.
This is a wonderful fudge! I cut the rum extract to 1 tsp and added finely chopped dried apricots. The white fudge is extremely sweet however. I wonder if anyone has tried it with unsweetened condensed milk?
I did have some changes.. I used chopped pistachios in place of the walnuts and in addition to the cranberries I also used dried apricots and I added crystallized ginger. this is beautiful for the holidays and it is a nice change of pace from “chocolate” fudge.
I made it with pecans. Delishious!
2nd time I made this it turned out “less white “colored. It was more yellow than white. I wonder if it’s a difference in butter? Or over- microwaving to get the chips to melt . Anyone have this issue? It’s definitely less pretty being yellow colored.
My friend and I had a hard time not slicing off “just a little more” “to even the edges” while watching a movie the other day. By the time Thelma and Louise had sailed into the blue sky over the Grand Canyon, we had eaten half the pan! I made as directed except I added extra cranberries and walnuts, and some orange zest.
I didn’t make any changes. I will be making this again. So easy to make!
Yes, I added cake crumbs … marvelous taste
Very rich and decadent! I forgot to chop the fruit, would have cut into squares better if I had remembered. Also made it with dried montmorency cherries, want to try it with other dried tart fruits. Easy to make, hardest part is the waiting for it to be ready! Sped it up in the fridge after it cooled down!
Defiantly not my favorite but good. I reduced the nutmeg. I don’t recommend…. use as written
Love this fudge! I always make a new cookie or candy new every year for Christmas. And this is the perfect fudge. I have changed a few thing I added a zest orange only and 1 teaspoon of rum flavoring
