- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies

Instructions
- Line your 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

- Stir in the peppermint extract and salt until fully incorporated.
- Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies over the top and gently press them down to adhere.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely set and firm.
