Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon cotton candy extract
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Food coloring (pink, blue, and purple)
- Sprinkles or edible glitter (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
- In a medium saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter over medium heat, stirring constantly until smooth and melted.
- Once the mixture is smooth, remove it from the heat and add the cotton candy extract and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined.
- Divide the mixture into three equal portions in separate bowls.
- Add a few drops of pink food coloring to one portion, blue to another, and purple to the third. Stir each portion until the colors are fully incorporated.
- Spoon each colored fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish in alternating layers, creating a swirled effect as you go. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together, creating a galaxy-like pattern.
- Let the fudge set at room temperature for 2-3 hours or refrigerate for 1 hour until firm.
- Once set, lift the fudge from the baking dish using the parchment paper overhang and cut into squares.
- Optional: Garnish with sprinkles or edible glitter for extra sparkle!
- Serve and enjoy the colorful, cotton candy-flavored fudge!
Notes
- If you don’t have cotton candy extract, you can substitute with a bit of raspberry or strawberry extract for a similar flavor.
- For a fun twist, you can add small candy pieces or marshmallows to the fudge mixture before it sets.
- Store the fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
- Make sure to work quickly when swirling the fudge, as it sets fast.
