In a saucepan over low heat, combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.
Stir constantly until the mixture is smooth and melted.
Remove the saucepan from the heat.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and butter until creamy.
Mix in the vanilla extract and red food coloring until evenly combined.
Gently fold the cream cheese mixture into the melted chocolate mixture until smooth.
Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Frequently Asked Questions
How should I properly store leftover Cream Cheese Red Velvet Fudge?
Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. For longer storage, you can refrigerate it, but allow it to come to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
Can I substitute the white chocolate chips with another type of chocolate in this recipe?
While white chocolate is crucial for the traditional flavor and texture, you could experiment with a very mild milk chocolate, though it will alter the classic red velvet taste and color.
What is the best way to ensure my Cream Cheese Red Velvet Fudge sets up firmly?
Ensure your melted chocolate and cream cheese mixture is fully incorporated and smooth before pouring it into the pan. Chilling the fudge for at least 3-4 hours, or until completely firm, is essential for clean slicing.
