Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups (525g) white chocolate chips
- 2 ¾ cups (550g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) heavy cream
- ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter
- 1 cup (170g) cinnamon baking chips
- 1 jar (7 oz/198g) marshmallow cream
- 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
- ¼ cup (50g) cinnamon sugar mix
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon sugar mix
- 1 pinch kosher salt
Instructions
- Cinnamon Swirl Preparation: Whisk brown sugar and cinnamon together, then fold in melted butter until creating a smooth, cohesive mixture that will serve as the distinctive flavor ribbon throughout the fudge.
- Fudge Base Construction: Melt white chocolate chips with sweetened condensed milk in microwave-safe bowl, stirring at 30-second intervals until achieving a velvety consistency. Incorporate vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, blending thoroughly to ensure uniform flavor distribution.
- Assembly and Marbling: Line a square baking pan with parchment paper, extending edges for easy removal. Pour half of the fudge mixture, then artfully dollop the cinnamon swirl mixture across the surface. Use a toothpick to create intricate marbled patterns, gently swirling the layers together. Complete by pouring remaining fudge to cover the design.
- Chilling and Setting: Refrigerate the fudge for 2 hours or until completely firm. Once set, lift from pan using parchment paper and slice into elegant, bite-sized squares.
- Finishing Touch: Whip powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla into a smooth glaze. Drizzle delicately over fudge pieces, mimicking the classic cinnamon roll decoration and adding a final layer of sweetness.
Notes
- Melt Chocolate Carefully: Use short, 15-20 second microwave intervals to prevent chocolate from burning, stirring between each interval to ensure smooth, glossy texture.
- Create Marbled Effect Strategically: Use a toothpick or thin knife to create delicate swirls, moving in gentle figure-eight motions for an elegant, professional-looking marble pattern.
- Control Cinnamon Intensity: Adjust ground cinnamon quantity based on personal preference – start with less, as you can always add more for a bolder flavor profile.
- Chill Completely: Ensure fudge is fully set in refrigerator for at least 2 hours to achieve clean, precise cutting lines and ideal texture that holds its shape.
