Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 1 bag semi-sweet chocolate chips (12 oz)
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk (14 oz)
- 1 cup rainbow-colored mini marshmallows
Candy Mix-Ins
- 1 cup Cadbury mini chocolate eggs with candy shell
- 1 cup Easter M&Ms
Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper. Scatter half of the Easter M&Ms and Cadbury mini eggs evenly across the bottom to create a colorful candy base.
- Melt the chocolate mixture: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each, until the mixture is smooth and fully melted.
- Add marshmallows: Gently fold in the rainbow mini marshmallows, just enough to distribute them throughout the chocolate mixture without melting them.
- Assemble the fudge: Pour the chocolate-marshmallow mixture over the candy layer in the pan. Smooth the surface, then sprinkle the remaining Easter M&Ms and Cadbury mini eggs over the top. Optionally, add Easter-themed sprinkles for extra festive flair.
- Chill to set: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for about 1 hour or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Slice and serve: Once set, use the parchment paper edges to lift the fudge out of the pan. Transfer to a cutting board and slice into 16 squares for serving.
Notes
- Nutrition information is an estimate and may vary based on exact ingredients and serving size.
- Prepping the pan with parchment paper allows you to easily remove the whole fudge block for slicing.
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips can be swapped for milk, dark, or white chocolate chips to vary the flavor.
- Feel free to use your favorite Easter candies such as jelly beans or other chocolate eggs.
- Store leftover fudge in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 weeks.
- To keep marshmallows fresh and fluffy, wait to cut the fudge into squares until ready to eat.
