EASY EASTER FUDGE RECIPE:

Easy 4-ingredient Easter Fudge | KitchenCents.com

Easy Easter Fudge

Yield: 36 pieces
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Total Time: 5 minutes

Rich chocolate fudge filled with colorful mini marshmallows and Cadbury Mini Eggs. Easy Easter treat made in 5 minutes!

Ingredients

  • 12 oz bag chocolate chips
  • 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 1/2 cups marshmallows
  • 1 1/3 cups mini candy-coated chocolate eggs, about a 10oz bag
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla, optional

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, add chocolate chips then pour sweetened condensed milk over it.  Microwave on high for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes. 
  2. Stir hot chocolate and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.
  3. Add marshmallows and stir only until evenly distributed.  The marshmallows will puff slightly because the chocolate mixture is warm. Over mixing will cause the marshmallows to dissolve.
  4. Line 8 x 8-inch pan with waxed paper or parchment paper.  Place 1/2 the mini chocolate eggs to the bottom of the pan.
  5. Pour fudge mixture over the top and smooth out and place the remaining mini chocolate eggs on top.
  6. Chill until set (about 30-45 minutes) then cut into pieces.

Notes

You can use milk or semisweet chocolate, whichever you prefer. Milk chocolate chips will taste sweeter, semisweet chocolate chips will taste more like dark chocolate.

    Hi Rachel! This recipe looks and tasted great, although I did change from the mini easter eggs to smaller M&M’s and they still tasted good!

  3. Rachel says

    Hi Leigh-Anne. This will keep for several weeks in the fridge or up to a week (or more) on the counter. Just make sure you store it in an airtight container. I hope this helps.

  5. Rachel says

    No, omitting the marshmallows wouldn’t have caused an issue with it setting. Did you use sweetened condensed milk? If you used evaporated milk, cow milk or any other milk instead, that would make this recipe not set. The only other thing I could think that would make it not set is using the wrong quantities.

  7. Cindy DeCraene says

    This recipe did not set up for me. I e em tried putting it in the freezer. I used milk chocolate chips and left out the marshmallows because I did not have any on hand and I’m not a big fan of marshmallows either could this have been why?

  8. Rachel says

    I’m not sure. Did you use sweetened condensed milk? If you used anything but sweetened condensed milk it won’t set. If you did use the right milk then maybe the chocolate you used. We usually have chocolate chips on hand so that’s what we make it with.

    Hi Jackie! Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment. This recipe can be made with milk or semisweet chocolate chips, whichever you prefer. You’ll read in my post for this recipe, my daughters prefer milk chocolate chips and my husband and I perfer the darker semisweet. If you are a milk chocolate fan, you’d probably enjoy this fudge more if made from that. I hope you have a great Easter weekend!

    Tried this today … not sure if u meant semi sweet chocolate chips but your link indicated semi sweet … turned out ok but might be better with regular chips

    Hi Jenny! Thanks for stopping by. I’ve never molded this recipe but in theory, I think it would work. The only thing I would suggest is to make sure your molds are well coated with something (oil, rice crispies, or even sugar). I think the biggest problem you might run into is that fudge is soft in nature and soft things don’t like to pop out of molds easily. If you decide to mold this fudge I would love to hear about your experience!

  16. Jenny says

    If I leave out the candies. Do you think that it is possible to make these into molds, so I can have it be in cute shapes for a bridal shower?

  17. Rachel says

    Hi Kyooty! I’m sorry you’ve had a bad experience with this. I’m not sure if you are referring to the Easy 4-ingredient Easter Fudge recipe. The fudge recipe doesn’t have any white chocolate in it. Also, did you use milk as in cow’s milk? This recipe calls for a 14-oz can of sweetened condensed milk. It’s very thick and sweet. If you used regular milk that would probably explain why it was goo.

  18. Rachel says

    Thanks Elyse! I’m happy to hear you like this fudge. The simplicity and tastiness are why we love it. I LOVE the idea of using red and green for Christmas!

  19. Elyse says

    You could make these with red and green eggs too for xmas. This recipie was easy and tasty too thanks for sharing

  20. Rachel says

    Hi Alyssa! Nope. If you don’t care for marshmallows you can leave them out altogether. With three little girls, we like to add them in for color. The girls think there so “pretty” and fun.

  22. Bonneau Angèle says

    Thanks, Kim! This fudge is awesome, quick, and easy! If you like chocolate and those delicious mini eggs, you will LOVE this fudge.

  26. Rachel says

    Hi Francine! This recipe is a great one to do with kiddos. I hope you and your grandson had a wonderful time making and eating this together.

  29. Lynda says

    Bonjour les quantités exact de chocolats n’est pas écrit non plus combien le guimauves Merci de me répondre

  30. Rachel says

    Hi, Anne! Short answer–sweetened. Long answer–I used milk chocolate with mine because my girls prefer it. If you prefer dark chocolate then use semi-sweet chocolate chips, or even baking chocolate but I wouldn’t go higher than 70% cocoa unless you like REALLY dark chocolate. I hope this helps. Thanks for stopping by!

  32. Kimberly @ Berly's Kitchen says

    This is so adorable and festive! Mini chocolate eggs and fudge would make the best combination. I so want to make this. 🙂

  38. gunjan says
