Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring the edges hang over the sides for easy removal, and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk, granulated sugar, and butter. Place over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent burning. Continue to cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until the mixture thickens slightly.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately add the white chocolate chips. Stir vigorously until the chocolate chips are fully melted and incorporated.
Stir in the Irish cream liqueur and vanilla extract. Mix until the ingredients are fully combined and the mixture is smooth.
Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out into an even layer with a spatula.
If desired, sprinkle the top with a light dusting of sea salt for a sweet and salty contrast.
Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then transfer it to the refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Place on a cutting board and cut into 24 squares or your desired serving size.
Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
