Description

This delightful Cotton Candy Fudge recipe combines creamy white chocolate with sweetened condensed milk and whimsical cotton candy flavoring, creating a fun and colorful treat perfect for any celebration. The fudge is swirled with pink and blue colors for a marble-like effect and topped with rainbow sprinkles to add a festive touch.

Ingredients

Fudge Base

  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cotton candy flavoring

Coloring and Decoration

  • Pink food coloring
  • Blue food coloring
  • Unicorn or rainbow sprinkles (for decoration)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Dish: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring there’s extra hanging over the sides. This will make removing the fudge easier once it has set.
  2. Melt Chocolate Mixture: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir continuously until the chocolate is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and cotton candy flavoring until evenly incorporated.
  3. Divide and Color: Pour the fudge mixture evenly into two separate bowls. Add pink food coloring to one bowl and blue to the other, mixing each until the color is uniform and vibrant.
  4. Create Marble Effect: Spoon alternating dollops of the pink and blue fudge mixtures into the prepared baking dish. Use a toothpick or butter knife to gently swirl the two colors together, creating a beautiful marbled pattern.
  5. Add Sprinkles: Generously sprinkle unicorn or rainbow sprinkles on top of the fudge to add a colorful and festive finish.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the baking dish in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge is fully set and firm to the touch.
  7. Slice and Serve: Once set, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the dish. Cut into 16 squares and enjoy this creamy, sweet, and visually stunning cotton candy fudge!

Notes

  • Make sure to stir the chocolate mixture continuously while melting to prevent burning.
  • Use gel food coloring for more vibrant colors without affecting the fudge’s texture.
  • Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • Allow fudge to come to room temperature for a few minutes before serving for easier biting.
  • Feel free to experiment with other flavor extracts to customize the fudge.
