Easter Fudge is one of my favorite treats to make in the springtime. This fudge has a chocolate and white chocolate layer and is filled with crushed Cadbury Mini Eggs!
Easter Fudge Recipe
This candy fudge recipe only requires 4 ingredients, a microwave, and a fridge. It is a super simple treat that is so cute and festive for the Easter season. But watch out, this fudge includes Cadbury Mini Eggs which means it’s highly addicting 😉
Ingredients for Easter Fudge
- Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips – I like to use semi sweet chocolate chips for the bottom layer because when combined with the sweetened condensed milk, it tastes sweeter, almost like a milk chocolate. If you like a darker, more rich chocolate flavor, I’d suggest using dark chocolate chips instead.
- White Chocolate Chips
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Mini Cadbury Eggs (crushed) – I like to put my Cadbury Mini Eggs into a zip top bag and then crush them by hitting them with my rolling pin. Once they are crushed, place them in the freezer; this is so they don’t completely melt when mixed in the warm fudge.
How to Make Candy Fudge for Easter
- Begin by placing your Cadbury Mini Eggs in a large zip top bag, then crush them with a rolling pin.
- Place the crushed candy eggs in the freezer until needed later in the recipe.
- Next, line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper and set aside.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, add the semi sweet chocolate chips and half of the sweetened condensed milk.
- Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds, then stir.
- Then, microwave the mixture for an additional 30 seconds and stir vigorously until smooth.
- Now pour the chocolate mixture into the bottom of your prepared pan and spread in an even layer.
- Place the pan in the fridge to set while you make the next layer.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, add the remaining sweetened condensed milk and the white chocolate chips.
- Microwave the mixture for 30 seconds, then stir.
- Then, microwave the mixture for an additional 30 seconds and stir vigorously until smooth.
- Next, quickly fold in the frozen mini Cadbury Eggs. We froze them beforehand so that they wouldn’t immediately melt in the warm chocolate.
- Remove the pan from the fridge and pour the white chocolate fudge mixture on top of the semisweet chocolate fudge.
- Spread the white chocolate and candy layer until even and smooth.
- Finally, top the fudge with a few extra pieces of crushed Cadbury Eggs, if desired.
- Place the fudge in the fridge to set up for at least 1 hour prior to cutting and serving.
- Enjoy!
How to store leftover fudge:
While you don’t have to store the fudge in the fridge, I usually do just to keep it fresh. This fudge will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days, in the fridge for 7 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
