Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips or white baking chocolate
  • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup candy corn chewy and colorful
  • a pinch salt balances sweetness

Equipment

  • Heavy-bottomed saucepan
  • Rubber spatula
  • 20cm (8-inch) square pan
  • Parchment paper

Method
 

  1. Line your square pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  2. Combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a heavy-bottomed saucepan.
  3. Heat over low heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth, shiny, and fully melted—about 5 minutes. You’ll hear a gentle bubbling and see the mixture turn creamy.
  4. Stir in the vanilla extract and a pinch of salt, blending well until evenly incorporated.
  5. Gently fold in the candy corn, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the mixture. It will look colorful and slightly sticky.
  6. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan, using a spatula to spread it out into an even layer. The surface should be smooth and glossy.
  7. Let the fudge sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, allowing it to cool slightly before refrigerating.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until the fudge is firm and set. It should feel solid and give a slight jiggle when gently shaken.
  9. Use the overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan, then cut into squares with a sharp knife for clean edges.
  10. Serve the squares on a plate, revealing the colorful, chewy candy corn nestled within a shiny, creamy base.

Notes

For extra fun, add mini marshmallows or sprinkle a few more candy corns on top before chilling.
