Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, making sure it covers the sides for easy removal later.
Melt the Chocolate: In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave for 1 minute, then stir well. If the chocolate is not fully melted, continue microwaving in 30-second increments until it becomes smooth and creamy.
Mix in Flavorings: Once melted, stir in the vanilla extract, dried cranberries, and a pinch of salt until everything is well combined.
Transfer to the Pan: Quickly pour the mixture into the lined pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. For an extra festive touch, sprinkle some sparkling sugar on top and gently press it down into the fudge.
Cool the Fudge: Allow the fudge to cool completely to room temperature. For faster cooling, you can refrigerate it until set.
Cut and Store: Once cooled, cut the fudge into squares and store it in an airtight container. This fudge can be kept at room temperature or in the fridge, depending on you
