Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 24 oz white almond bark
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp cotton candy flavoring
Coloring
- Light blue food coloring gel (a few drops)
- Light pink food coloring gel (a few drops)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper to prevent sticking and make it easier to remove the fudge once set.
- Melt the Almond Bark: Place the white almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring frequently to ensure it melts evenly without burning, until completely smooth.
- Add Condensed Milk and Flavoring: Stir the sweetened condensed milk and cotton candy flavoring into the melted almond bark until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.
- Divide and Color: Split the fudge mixture evenly into two separate bowls. Add a few drops of light blue food coloring gel to one bowl and a few drops of light pink food coloring gel to the other, stirring each until the color is uniform.
- Layer the Fudge: Spoon the blue and pink fudge mixtures alternately into the prepared pan, layering them in small spoonfuls to form a colorful pattern.
- Swirl the Colors: Using a toothpick or skewer, gently swirl the two colors together to create a marbled cotton candy effect throughout the fudge.
- Refrigerate: Place the pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until the fudge is firm and fully set.
- Serve: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan using the foil or parchment overhang, cut into 25 small squares, and enjoy your visually stunning and delicious cotton candy fudge.
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe bowl and stir frequently to avoid burning the almond bark.
- You can substitute cotton candy flavoring with vanilla or another preferred flavor if unavailable.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
- For easier removal, allow the fudge to come to room temperature for a few minutes before cutting.
- The quantity yields approximately 25 small squares of fudge.
