Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Ingredients

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup candy corn, plus extra for topping
  • Yellow and orange food coloring (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring there is some overhang for easy removal later. Lightly grease the parchment paper with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir constantly until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt for flavor balance.
  3. Fold in Candy Corn: Gently fold in 1 cup of candy corn to evenly distribute it throughout the fudge mixture without breaking the candy pieces.
  4. Color the Fudge (Optional): To create a layered look, divide the fudge mixture evenly into three bowls. Add yellow food coloring to one bowl and orange food coloring to another, leaving the last bowl white.
  5. Layer the Fudge: Pour the yellow colored fudge into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula. Follow by layering the orange fudge on top, then add the white fudge layer last. Smooth each layer. For an artistic touch, gently swirl the layers together using a knife to create a marbled effect.
  6. Add Toppings: Press additional candy corn pieces into the top layer of fudge for decorative appeal and extra sweetness.
  7. Chill and Set: Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set to the touch.
  8. Cut and Serve: Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into squares or rectangles and serve as a sweet seasonal treat.

Notes

  • Be careful to melt the white chocolate on low heat to prevent scorching.
  • If desired, skip the food coloring for a simpler candy corn fudge look.
  • Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain freshness.
  • Allow fudge to come to room temperature briefly before serving for a softer texture when eating.
  • Use good quality white chocolate chips for the best creamy texture and flavor.
