  • Sweetened Condensed Milk: In a pinch, sub with canned cream of coconut 1:1. While offering similar richness, this non-dairy option will give the fudge a tropical flavor.
  • White Chocolate Chips: Substitute with roughly-chopped white chocolate baking bars or white chocolate almond bark. Or use white chocolate melting wafers.
  • Pure Vanilla Extract: Sub with bourbon, brandy or amber rum.
  • Candy Corn: Sub with Halloween-colored M&Ms. Although it will no longer be called “candy corn fudge” it’ll be another great version of Halloween fudge, and just as delicious.

📖 Recipe Steps

RECIPE PREP: Line a square 8 x 8 baker with parchment paper extending over the edges of the pan on all 4 sides. These pieces will later be used as “handles” to lift the dessert slab out of the pan and onto a board for slicing.

  1. In a large (microwave safe) batter bowl, add sweetened condensed milk, salt and white chocolate chips. With a vampire spatula, stir to combine. Microwave 30 seconds on high. Stir well. Microwave another 30 seconds. Stir in vanilla until incorporated. Keep stirring until mixture is smooth.
  2. Transfer fudge to prepared pan. Spread it into an even layer.
  3. Add candy corn and sprinkles on top, slightly pressing them into the fudge. Chill 2 hours in the fridge until firm.
  4. Remove fudge from pan by lifting edges of parchment paper. Transfer to a wooden board and slice as desired. Yields 9 candy corn dessert bars, or 32 pieces of Halloween fudge.

STOVETOP INSTRUCTIONS: Melt white chocolate chips with salt and sweetened condensed milk in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Spread evenly in prepared pan. Add candy corn and sprinkles over the top. Slightly press them in. Chill fudge 2 hours until firm.

👩🏻‍🍳 Recipe FAQ

These are the most commonly asked questions when making candy corn fudge, and the most helpful answers for recipe success.

How to store leftover candy corn fudge?

Store the dessert bars in an air-tight container and refrigerate. They’ll stay fresh and tasty up to 5 days.

Can I freeze fudge?

Yes, it freezes well. Once the refrigerated fudge is firm, wrap it in 2 layers of parchment paper, followed by aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Then slide it into a zip-top freezer bag and press out the air. Store the fudge in the way back of the freezer to keep it away from the elements.
