Tips

• Use high-quality white chocolate chips for the smoothest texture.
• Stir gently to avoid introducing air bubbles into the fudge.
• Finely grate only the green part of the lime to avoid bitterness from the white pith.
• Chill the fudge thoroughly before slicing for clean, neat squares.
• Warm your knife under hot water and wipe it dry between cuts for professional-looking pieces.
• Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
