An easy to make sweet snack, Baby Shower red velvet fudge, with a deliciously full and creamy chocolate taste, yet airy. With a topping of white chocolate frosting, you have entered the chocolate mecca. The fudge is decorated with white (or blue) sprinkles and is a nice sweet appetizer to serve at your baby shower, maternity party, or to your maternity visitors.
You add a pinch of salt to the fudge to get a more intense flavor.
Melt the white chocolate au-bain-marie. Therefore bring a pan with about 2 inches of water to the bowl. Take a heat-proof bowl and hang die above the water (but don't touch the water). In the bowl, you can melt chocolate.
If you don't have vanilla-extract, substitute it with 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar.
Use confectioner's sugar and not regular sugar (you don't want a crunchy frosting).
Use a normal cream cheese and not a light version.
