List of Ingredients
1 1/2 teaspoons plus 1/4 cup butter (no substitutes) -- softened, divided
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup sour cream
12 (1-ounce) squares white baking chocolate -- chopped
1 (7-ounce) jar marshmallow creme
1/2 cup crushed peppermint candy
1/2 teaspoon peppermint extractRecipe
Line a 9-in. square pan with foil. Grease the foil with 1-1/2 teaspoons butter; set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine the sugar, sour cream and remaining butter. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a rapid boil; cook and stir until a candy thermometer reads 234F (soft-ball stage), about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in white chocolate and marshmallow creme until melted. Fold in peppermint candy and extract. Pour into prepared pan. Chill until firm. Using foil, lift fudge out of pan. Gently peel off foil; cut fudge into 1-in. squares. Store in the refrigerator.
