Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 3½ cups white chocolate chips
- 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 tbsp salted butter
Coloring and Toppings
- Pink food coloring
- Purple food coloring
- Blue food coloring (teal recommended)
- ½ cup marshmallow bits
- 1 tbsp rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Prepare the base mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl or a double boiler, melt the white chocolate chips together with the sweetened condensed milk and salted butter until smooth and creamy. Stir regularly to ensure the mixture does not burn.
- Divide the mixture: Evenly split the melted fudge mixture into three separate bowls to create layers of color.
- Color the mixtures: Add pink food coloring to one bowl, purple to the second, and blue (preferably teal shade) to the third. Mix each thoroughly to achieve vibrant pastel colors.
- Layer the fudge: Pour the pink fudge mixture into a lined baking pan, spreading it evenly. Allow it to set slightly in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes before adding the purple layer on top. Then chill again before adding the final blue layer. This layering creates a beautiful gradient effect.
- Add toppings: While the final blue layer is still wet, sprinkle the marshmallow bits and rainbow sprinkles over the top for added texture and colorful decoration.
- Set and chill: Refrigerate the assembled fudge for at least 2 hours, or until fully set and firm to the touch.
- Serve: Remove the fudge from the pan, cut into squares, and enjoy your magical unicorn fudge creation.
Notes
- Use teal food coloring for the blue layer for a more vibrant and whimsical effect.
- Make sure each fudge layer has set slightly before adding the next to prevent colors from mixing.
- Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk with vegan alternatives.
