  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • Green food coloring (optional)
  • Witch or spooky sprinkles and candies for decoration

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a large bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and marshmallow cream.
  2. Step 2: In a saucepan (at least 4 quarts), combine the butter, evaporated milk, and sugar.
  3. Step 3: Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling for 8 minutes or until the temperature reaches 235°F.
  4. Step 4: Pour the hot sugar mixture over the white chocolate and marshmallow mixture. Stir until the chocolate melts and the mixture is well combined. Add vanilla and green food coloring, then stir to mix.
  5. Step 5: Pour the fudge into a greased 9×13 inch pan. Decorate with witch or spooky sprinkles and candies. Allow to cool completely before slicing into 1-inch squares.

Tips & Variations

  • Use gel food coloring for a more vibrant green without altering the fudge’s texture.
  • Add a pinch of salt to balance the sweetness if desired.
  • For a fun twist, try mixing in crushed candy canes or colored sugar before the fudge sets.

Storage

Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks. For longer storage, keep it refrigerated for up to a month. Bring to room temperature before serving to restore its soft, creamy texture.

How to Serve

A rectangular cake with one thick layer covered in bright green frosting fills a white baking pan. The frosting is smooth with gentle swirls and is topped with colorful Halloween-themed sprinkles including small white eyeballs, black witch hats, purple, orange, yellow, and black tiny shapes, and sprinkles scattered evenly across the surface. The pan is placed on a white marbled surface. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use regular milk instead of evaporated milk?

Evaporated milk provides the right consistency and richness for this fudge. Using regular milk may result in a runnier texture, so it’s best to stick with evaporated milk.

How do I prevent the fudge from becoming grainy?

Stir constantly while boiling the sugar mixture to dissolve the sugar completely and avoid graininess. Also, avoid stirring once you combine the hot syrup with the chocolate mixture to ensure a smooth texture.
