But this year I wanted to do something more, so I created white chocolate mini egg fudge. Just another one of my favorite easter recipes like this Easter Egg Hot Chocolate and Easter Egg Hot Chocolate.

🔪 Instructions
Check out how to make mini egg fudge with these simple step-by-step instructions:
Prepare an 8x8 baking dish by lining the inside with foil. Set aside.
Chop about 10 mini eggs into pieces and set them aside.
Add your white chocolate chips to a large microwave-safe mixing bowl.
Heat the chocolate for 1 minute.
Stir and return to microwave and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted.
Remove the lid and foil from the top of your frosting container and heat in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Stir the frosting and pour it into the melted chocolate.
Mix together until completely incorporated.
Add in mini eggs.
Stir until evenly distributed.
Immediately pour the fudge mixture out and into your prepared pan because it will set quickly.
Spread the fudge out into an even layer. Top with the crushed mini eggs that you reserved earlier. Lightly press them down into the fudge to adhere.
Place the dish into the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours. Remove the fudge from the pan by lifting up on the foil. Remove the foil from the fudge.
Slice the fudge into 1-inch sized squares with a sharp knife and serve. Enjoy.
🧾 Substitutions
White chocolate chips. You can swap out the white chocolate chips for dark chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, milk chocolate chips, or a combination of any of them for a richer chocolate flavor experience.
Frosting. If desired, you can use canned chocolate frosting or any other flavor you may want to use. I recommend sticking with vanilla or cream cheese flavor because they are ideal for creating a rich and creamy flavor perfect for Easter.
📖 Variations
Candy variations
For some more easy Easter fudge ideas, you can add in candies like jelly beans, Easter sprinkles, chopped Cadbury creme eggs, or whopper eggs. This is a great recipe to help you use up any leftover Easter candy!
Adding flavor
You can change the fudge's flavor by adding a little (like ½ teaspoon or less) of peppermint extract, orange extract, or other extract flavors.
Adding berries
Adding in crushed freeze-dried berries would also help to add a nice contrast to the rich fudge flavors.
🍴 Recipe Tips
No candy thermometer
This is not a traditional fudge recipe so you will not be needing a candy thermometer. You can make it in just a microwave and bowl for a super simple recipe anyone can make.
Stovetop
If desired you can melt the chocolate in a double boiler or in a pot over very low heat on the stove.
It's fool proof
Unlike traditional fudge recipes, you do not need to worry about this one. This recipe is pretty fool-proof.
With regular fudge, anything from how long you boil the sugar to the weather outside can easily affect how it turns out. This recipe is perfect every time and without temperamental issues.
