How to Make Blueberry Pie Fudge Step by Step
Start by lining an 8×8 pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy lifting later.
In a saucepan over low heat, melt white chocolate chips, butter, and sweetened condensed milk together until smooth, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract and lemon zest if desired.
Fold in freeze-dried blueberries or swirl in a homemade blueberry compote for a marbled effect.
Sprinkle pie crust crumbs or graham crackers into the bottom of the pan. Pour in the fudge mixture, spreading evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until firm. When ready, lift out the fudge using the parchment and cut into squares.
