👩🍳 How to Make It
Step 1: Prep the Pan
Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper or foil, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Step 2: Melt the White Bark
Place the white bark in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until completely smooth.
Step 3: Combine Ingredients
Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and lemon pudding mix. Mix until fully blended and silky smooth.
Step 4: Pour and Smooth
Transfer the mixture to your prepared pan. Use a spatula to smooth the surface evenly.
Step 5: Chill and Cut
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Lift the fudge out using the parchment overhang and slice into squares.
