Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 24 oz white almond bark
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
Flavoring and Coloring
- 1 tsp cotton candy flavoring
- Light blue food coloring gel (a few drops)
- Light pink food coloring gel (a few drops)
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch pan with aluminum foil or parchment paper to prevent the fudge from sticking, making it easier to remove later.
- Melt the Almond Bark: Place the white almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave it in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until the almond bark is fully melted and smooth.
- Add Condensed Milk and Flavoring: Stir the sweetened condensed milk and cotton candy flavoring into the melted almond bark, mixing until well combined and smooth.
- Divide and Color: Evenly split the fudge mixture into two separate bowls. Add light blue food coloring gel to one bowl and light pink food coloring gel to the other. Stir each until the color is fully incorporated.
- Layer the Fudge: Alternate scooping spoonfuls of the blue and pink fudge mixtures into the prepared pan, layering them evenly.
- Swirl the Colors: Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together, creating a beautiful marbled effect throughout the fudge.
- Refrigerate: Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until the fudge has set completely and is firm to the touch.
- Serve: Once set, lift the fudge out using the foil or parchment, cut into 25 squares, and enjoy the colorful, sweet treat.
Notes
- For best results, stir frequently while melting almond bark to avoid burning.
- Use gel food coloring to achieve vibrant colors without thinning the fudge mixture.
- Swirling gently will prevent the colors from blending too much and losing the marbled look.
- Store leftover fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- You can substitute cotton candy flavoring with vanilla extract for a milder taste.
