1. How long does Christmas fudge last?

Properly stored in the refrigerator, your fudge will keep its creamy texture and fresh taste for up to three weeks. For longer storage, freeze it for up to three months — it’ll still taste amazing once thawed.

2. Can I make Christmas fudge without sweetened condensed milk?

Sweetened condensed milk is essential for achieving that silky, smooth consistency. However, if you need a dairy-free version, you can use sweetened coconut condensed milk for a similar result.

3. Why isn’t my Christmas fudge setting properly?

If your fudge seems too soft, it’s likely due to improper ingredient ratios or insufficient chilling time. Make sure you use the full 14 oz of condensed milk, divided evenly, and chill for at least an hour — longer if needed.

Ingredients

14 oz sweetened condensed milk, divided evenly (7 oz per layer)
6 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
6 oz white chocolate chips
2 tsp vanilla extract, divided (1 tsp per layer)
2 tbsp Christmas sprinkles, plus extra for topping
½–1 tsp peppermint extract (optional)

Instructions

Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray.
In a medium bowl, combine semi-sweet chocolate chips with half of the sweetened condensed milk. Melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract (and peppermint extract if using), then spread evenly into the prepared pan.
In a clean bowl, combine white chocolate chips with the remaining sweetened condensed milk. Melt in 30-second bursts, stirring between each until smooth.
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix in Christmas sprinkles.
Spread the white chocolate layer over the chocolate layer, then top with additional sprinkles.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until firm.
Remove from the pan, slice into small squares, and serve.

Notes

Use high-quality chocolate for the best texture and flavor.
Work quickly when spreading each layer as the fudge sets fast.
Add crushed candy canes for extra holiday flavor and texture.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 weeks or freeze for up to 3 months.
