Ingredients You’ll Need

Chocolate – you will need white chocolate and semi sweet chocolate. Feel free to use dark chocolate chips for the bottom layer if you prefer.
Sweetened Condensed Milk – this will help with the creamy consistency of the fudge.
Candy Canes- crushed candy canes are used for the topping to give this a nice peppermint flavor and crunch.

How to Make Peppermint Bark Fudge

Just a few easy steps and only takes 15 minutes of prep! This fudge recipe makes the perfect Holiday gift!

Chocolate Fudge

Use parchment paper to line an 8×8-inch square pan. In a medium pot, add the semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk, and butter. Combine ingredients on low to medium heat until melted.
Add the fudge into the prepared dish and place it aside for 30 minutes to harden.

Peppermint Bark White Chocolate Layer

In a medium pot, add the chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Combine until smooth.
Pour in the 1 tsp of peppermint-flavored mint extract and combine. Add the fudge on top of the first layer.

Topping

Top with the rest of the crushed candy canes and mini chocolate chips and set aside for the night for the best results.
Serve and enjoy!

What Is Sweetened Condensed Milk?

Sweetened condensed milk is a sweet, thick, and off-white color milk used in many desserts. It is used to assist with the thickness and consistency of chocolate, fudge, cakes, cookies, and more.

What Kind of White Chocolate Should I Use?

This recipe uses white chocolate chips to create white chocolate fudge. The chocolate chips melt easier than white chocolate bars or bricks. I prefer Ghirardelli white chocolate chips.
