Peppermint Bark Fudge is like a peppermint bark recipe but in fudge form! It’s super easy and would make for the perfect holiday gift!!

Easy Peppermint Bark Fudge (7-Ingredient Recipe)

chocolate chips (or semi-sweet)

can sweetened condensed milk (divided)

unsalted butter (room temperature, divided)

vanilla extract

white baking chips (good quality)

peppermint extract

candy canes (crushed)

Prepare the Pan: Line a small square pan (8x8 or similar size) with parchment paper or use sprayed aluminum foil.

Crush Candy Canes: Place the candy canes in a sealed plastic bag and gently crush them with a rolling pin.

Prepare the Dark Chocolate Layer: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips, half of the sweetened condensed milk, and 1 tablespoon of butter. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until melted (usually less than 2 minutes). Do not overcook.

Add Vanilla and Chill: Stir until all the dark chocolate mixture is melted, then add the vanilla extract. Stir until smooth, pour into the prepared pan, and smooth the surface. Place it in the freezer for a few minutes.

Prepare the White Chocolate Peppermint Layer: In another microwave-safe bowl, combine the white baking chips, the remaining half of the sweetened condensed milk, and 2 tablespoons of butter. Microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until melted (usually less than 2 minutes). Do not overcook.

Add Peppermint and Candy Canes: Stir to ensure all the white chocolate mixture is melted, then add the peppermint extract. Stir until smooth, and mix in 1/4 cup of crushed candy canes. Pour this mixture over the dark chocolate layer and smooth.

Sprinkle Crushed Candy Canes: Sprinkle the remaining crushed candy canes over the top.

Chill the Fudge: Cover the fudge with plastic wrap and chill it in the fridge for 2 hours.

Cut and Serve: Lift the fudge from the baking dish by pulling up the parchment paper. Place it on a cutting board and cut it into squares of the desired size. Serve at room temperature. Enjoy!

i love peppermint, and this was delicious!

This peppermint bark fudge is a delicious chocolate and white chocolate two layer fudge made in the microwave, without a candy thermometer! It has the perfect light peppermint taste, and is topped with candy cane pieces. It's got the same great flavors of traditional peppermint bark, but in fudge form!

Peppermint Bark Fudge

sweetened condensed milk ((divided))

chocolate chips

white chocolate chips

butter

tsp peppermint extract

TBS crushed candy cane pieces

Separate your sweetened condensed milk evenly into two medium sized microwave safe bowls.&nbsp;

Add your chocolate chips to one of the bowls, and your milk chocolate chips to the other.&nbsp;

Add 1 TBS of butter to each of the bowls.&nbsp;

Microwave the chocolate bowl for about 30 seconds, then stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds and stir till fudge is totally smooth.&nbsp; (Microwave longer if needed)

Pour the chocolate mixture into a 9x9in baking dish lined with foil or parchment paper and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.&nbsp;

Microwave the white chocolate bowl for about 30 seconds, then stir. Microwave again for 30 seconds and stir till fudge is totally smooth.&nbsp;

Stir the peppermint extract into the white chocolate mixture.&nbsp;

Pour the white chocolate fudge over the chocolate fudge and spread around evenly.&nbsp;

Sprinkle crushed candy cane pieces over the top of the fudge and press lightly into the top.&nbsp;

Allow the fudge to set for several hours at room temperature till hard, or put the fudge in the fridge for about 1 hour for a quicker set.

Slice and serve. Store any extras in an airtight container for 2-3 days. Peppermint pieces start to soften after too long.

This recipe does not work at all. I put the 12oz bag of dark chocolate chips in the microwave safe bowl with 7oz of sweetened condensed milk and 1TBSP of butter and followed the directions for 30 second intervals. Even tried a second time with 15 second intervals but the chocolate always solidifies and becomes grainy. Wasted two bags of chocolate chips on this recipe. Definitely do this the old fashioned way and don’t use the microwave to cut corners. Lessened learned.
