Ingredients
To make this delightful treat, you’ll need:

Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Pan
Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with foil, ensuring the edges are covered for easy removal.
Step 2: Melt the Base
In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, butter, and water. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stirring until the chocolate chips are fully melted. If needed, heat for an additional 30 seconds.
Step 3: Add Pistachio Flavor
Stir in the dry pistachio pudding mix until fully blended with the melted chocolate mixture.
Step 4: Incorporate Powdered Sugar
Gradually add powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. The mixture will become thick and smooth.
Step 5: Fold in Pistachios
Gently fold in the chopped pistachios to ensure even distribution.
Step 6: Set the Fudge
Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
Step 7: Slice and Serve
Once chilled, lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil edges. Slice into squares with a sharp knife. Enjoy!
