Binding and Moisture Ingredients:
- 6 tablespoons (85 grams) butter
- ⅓ cup (80 ml) water
Garnish and Texture Ingredient:

Instructions
- Meticulously line an 8×8 square baking pan with aluminum foil, creating generous overhangs to facilitate effortless fudge extraction after setting.
- Place white chocolate chips, butter, and water into a microwave-safe vessel, heating in 1-minute intervals and stirring between each session until achieving a luxuriously smooth, fully melted consistency.
- Incorporate the instant pistachio pudding mix into the molten chocolate base, whisking thoroughly to create a uniform, vibrant green-hued mixture.
- Gradually introduce powdered sugar, folding in one cup at a time and blending completely to prevent lumps and ensure a silky texture.
- Gently fold shelled pistachios throughout the fudge mixture, distributing them evenly to provide delightful nutty bursts in every bite.
- Transfer the creamy mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to spread and level the surface with precision.
- Refrigerate the fudge for a minimum of 2 hours, allowing it to solidify completely and develop a firm, slice-able consistency.
- Once set, lift the fudge from the pan using the foil overhangs, carefully peel away the foil, and slice into elegant, bite-sized squares using a sharp knife.
