Description

A festive no-bake Halloween fudge recipe with rich chocolate and orange-tinted white chocolate layers, topped with candy corn. Quick to make and perfect for parties or spooky treats.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (255g) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 ½ cups (255g) white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz / 360g) sweetened condensed milk, divided
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, divided
  • Orange gel food coloring
  • 24 pieces candy corn

Instructions

  1. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with foil and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips and 5 oz of sweetened condensed milk. Microwave on 50% power for 1 minute, stir, then continue heating in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  3. Stir in ½ teaspoon vanilla extract and spread the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
  4. Refrigerate for 10 minutes to slightly set the bottom layer.
  5. In another bowl, combine white chocolate chips and remaining 5 oz of sweetened condensed milk. Microwave and stir in intervals until melted and smooth.
  6. Add ½ teaspoon vanilla and a few drops of orange gel food coloring, stirring until evenly tinted.
  7. Spread the orange fudge layer over the chocolate layer.
  8. Immediately press candy corn pieces gently into the top layer in even rows.
  9. Refrigerate until fully firm, about 1 hour.
  10. Slice into 24 squares and serve at room temperature.

Notes

  • A 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed milk measures about 10 oz by volume — divide evenly (5 oz per layer).
  • Use gel food coloring, not liquid, to avoid seizing the white chocolate and to achieve vibrant color.
  • Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 4–5 days, or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
