Whether it’s Christmastime or the dead of Winter, it’s time to make some candy cane fudge!
For the past couple of months, there’s been a package of unopened candy canes sitting in my pantry from the holidays.
I don’t want to throw them out, but haven’t the holidays passed?
Actually, my family believes anything mint is ALWAYS in season.
And thankfully Emily Franceschini is saving the day as a guest blogger on Mommy Evolution with her fabulous Candy Cane Fudge recipe.
Candy Cane Fudge Recipe
Ingredients:
- 3 cups white chocolate chips (2 bags)
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk

Directions for candy cane fudge:
Step 1: Line a 9×9 baking dish with parchment or foil and grease with butter.
Step 2: Using a large saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk.
Step 3: Stir until all of the white chocolate chips have completely melted.
Step 4: Then add the vanilla extract and stir in the crushed candy canes.
Step 5: Transfer fudge to the baking dish and allow it to cool to room temperature, approximately one hour.
Sprinkle more crushed candy cane on top.
Step 6: Transfer to the refrigerator and allow to set-up for another 3-4 hours.

Just wrap up in pretty packages if you’re bringing them to a party!

OOoh. I can’t resist anything with candy canes this time of year.
We make this after the season has passed with the leftover candy canes, too.
I’m definitely going to try this with our candy canes this year. Looks delicious!
And it’s a great pick-me-up in the dull months of January and February, too.
This has to be one of the simplest fudge recipes ever. Plus this dessert looks so pretty on the plate. Thanks for sharing this one!
It is absolutely easy — my favorite kind of recipe. Ha!
Yum! I love peppermint. This looks great, I wanna try! Thanks for coming and linking up on Friday Favorites!
Beautiful and simple fudge. Thanks for sharing with us at Throwback Thursday. Hope to see you again this week.
Sounds so yummy. Might have to try this. Pinned & shared. Thanks for joining the Inspiration Spotlight party.
Featured and pinned! Hope you are enjoying the Christmas season. Your friend, Linda @Crafts a la mode
This looks wonderful. A couple of questions:
1. do you stir some of the candy cane pieces into the fudge mixture or are they all on top?
2. when do you add the vanilla?
Ack! Somehow one of my steps didn’t make it into the post. I’ve updated it. But you add the vanilla and candy canes AFTER you’ve melted the chocolate chips.
I just made a candy cane recipe so I can imagine how yummy this is!
