Chocolate Layer: Add the chocolate, sweetened condensed milk and maple syrup to a medium pot over low heat, while stirring frequently. Once the mixture is smooth and combined, remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour into the prepared pan and spread evenly with an offset spatula. Place the pan in the freezer while you make the white chocolate layer.
Remove the pan from the freezer and spread the white chocolate layer on top of the chocolate fudge layer using an offset spatula. Top with crushed peppermint candies.
Allow to set for about 3 hours or place in the fridge or freezer to speed up the process.
Once the fudge is set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out from the pan. Use a sharp knife to cut into 1-inch pieces. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
How to store: Once your fudge has set in the freezer, you can transfer it to the fridge. Just be sure to keep it in an airtight container. You can layer the fudge with parchment paper to keep it from sticking to itself. This fudge will stay fresh in the fridge for two weeks!
How to freeze: You can keep it in the freezer for extended storage. It's perfect for making in advance! Frozen fudge will last for up to 6 months, if stored properly. Simply thaw it overnight in the fridge before enjoying.
