Ingredients
  

2 cups white chocolate chips

1 cup sweetened condensed milk

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

2 teaspoons ceremonial-grade matcha powder (for optimal flavor)

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

A pinch of salt

Optional toppings: crushed pistachios, dried edible flowers, or a light dusting of matcha powder

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Pan: Start by lining a 9x9 inch baking pan with parchment paper. Make sure the parchment paper hangs over the edges to facilitate easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment with a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.

    Melt the Chocolate Mixture: In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Set the saucepan over low heat and stir continuously until the mixture is smooth and fully melted. Be careful not to let it boil, as this could affect the texture.

      Incorporate Matcha: Once the chocolate is melted, remove the saucepan from heat. To prevent clumps, sift the matcha powder into the chocolate mixture. Stir until completely blended, ensuring the fudge turns a uniform green. Next, add the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, mixing thoroughly to ensure all flavors meld beautifully.

        Pour and Set: Transfer the fudge mixture into the lined baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth surface. If using optional toppings, sprinkle them over the fudge while it is still warm to ensure they adhere well to the surface.

          Chill: Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, or until the fudge has set completely and feels firm to the touch.

            Slice and Serve: Once the fudge has firmed up, use the overhanging parchment paper to lift it out of the baking pan. Using a sharp knife, cut the fudge into even squares. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator, and savor your delightful silky treat!
