I love how simple and fun this recipe is. With only two main ingredients and a few easy steps, it’s perfect for beginners or last-minute dessert needs. The fudge sets beautifully in the fridge, and the flavor reminds me of strawberry milkshakes or candy. Plus, it’s totally customizable—I can dress it up with sprinkles, cut it into fun shapes, or make it for any occasion.
Ingredients
(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 (16 oz) container strawberry frosting
12 oz white melting candy (like white chocolate or almond bark)
Red sprinkles (optional)
Directions
I line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper to make removal easy later.
In a microwave-safe bowl, I combine the strawberry frosting and white melting chocolate.
I microwave the mixture in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each round, until everything is fully melted and smooth.
I pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth it out evenly.
If I’m using sprinkles, I add them on top while the fudge is still warm.
I chill the dish in the fridge for about 45 minutes, or until the fudge is firm.
Once set, I remove the fudge from the dish, slice it into squares, and it’s ready to enjoy.
Servings and timing
This recipe yields about 16 squares of fudge. Prep time: 5 minutes Chill time: 45 minutes Total time: 50 minutes Each piece is sweet and satisfying—perfect for parties, holidays, or a quick dessert fix.
Variations
I like changing up the flavor by using different frostings—vanilla, lemon, or even chocolate work great. I’ve also swirled in a little food coloring or layered different fudge flavors for a fun look. Topping it with crushed freeze-dried strawberries or mini marshmallows adds extra texture and flavor too.
Storage/Reheating
I store the fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week. It can also be kept at room temperature in cooler environments, but I prefer the texture when it’s chilled. If I want to freeze it, I wrap the pieces in parchment and keep them in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months. I let them thaw in the fridge or at room temp before serving.
FAQs
Can I use other types of frosting?
Yes! I’ve tried this with vanilla, lemon, and even chocolate frosting—it always works. The texture stays the same, and I just get a different flavor.
What’s the best white melting chocolate to use?
I like using white chocolate chips, almond bark, or candy melts. As long as it melts smoothly, it will work in this recipe.
Do I have to refrigerate the fudge to set it?
It sets best in the fridge, especially if I want it to firm up quickly. But if I’m not in a hurry, I can let it sit at room temperature for a few hours until firm.
Can I add mix-ins to the fudge?
Definitely. I’ve added crushed cookies, chopped nuts, or mini marshmallows before pouring it into the pan. It adds a fun surprise in every bite.
How do I make clean cuts when slicing?
I let the fudge sit at room temperature for a few minutes, then use a sharp knife wiped clean between cuts. This gives me smooth, neat squares every time.
