Ingredients
Scale
Chocolate Fudge Layer
- 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 7 oz full-fat sweetened condensed milk (half of a can)
- 2 tablespoons Marshmallow Creme, Fluff
White Fudge Layer
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup sprinkles
- 1 tablespoon sprinkles (additional for topping)
- 1 cup Cadbury mini eggs
Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with foil, leaving enough overhang on the sides to easily lift the fudge out once it’s set.
- Prepare mini eggs: Set aside at least 9 whole mini eggs for topping. Chop the remaining eggs into various sizes for decoration and set aside.
- Make chocolate fudge layer: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, mix the semi-sweet chocolate chips, half can of sweetened condensed milk, and Marshmallow Creme. Stir continuously until melted and smooth. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly with a rubber spatula.
- Make white fudge layer: In another saucepan over medium heat, combine the white chocolate chips, remaining sweetened condensed milk (estimated 7 oz), and Marshmallow Creme (assumed extra 2 tablespoons), stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Add sprinkles: Gently fold in 1/3 cup sprinkles into the white fudge mixture without over-mixing to prevent color bleeding. Pour this layer over the chocolate fudge layer and spread evenly.
- Top fudge: Sprinkle the additional 1 tablespoon of sprinkles over the white fudge layer. Arrange the 9 whole Cadbury mini eggs in three rows of three on top, then sprinkle chopped mini eggs over the entire surface.
- Set fudge: Cover the pan with foil and refrigerate for 4 hours to set, or leave at room temperature overnight until firm.
- Remove fudge: Once set, carefully lift the fudge out of the pan using the foil edges. Flip the fudge onto a cutting board, peel off the foil, then flip it again so the decorated side faces up.
- Slice fudge: Use a sharp knife to cut the fudge into 1-inch squares. If refrigerated over 4 hours, let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before slicing for easier cutting.
Notes
- Line the pan with foil for easy removal and cleanup.
- Do not over-mix sprinkles in the white fudge layer to keep colors vibrant.
- Use a sharp knife warmed by running under hot water for cleaner fudge slices.
- If fudge is too firm after chilling, allow it to soften slightly at room temperature before cutting.
- Marshmallow Creme can be substituted with an equal amount of white marshmallows melted if unavailable.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
