Red Velvet Holiday Fudge | This Is Why I’m Full
This fudge is out of this world! I’ve never been a huge fudge person, my father and grandmother make it every year but they always put nuts in it, and I don’t really like nuts. Especially in soft gooey fudge! So the hubby and I decided to make our own fudge, he made peanut butter fudge, and I made this red velvet fudge! More specifically I made Red Velvet fudge with a cream cheese fudge frosting layer of deliciousness! It was really easy to make, and you can either melt the different chocolates in the microwave, or use a double boiler!
I thought that the green food coloring would add to the festive spirit, and I was right! I made this last year, and it was such a hit that I decided to make it again for a potluck at work, and everyone loved it! It was all gone so fast that I was glad that I had made extra for myself, just in case!

- 2 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cups milk chocolate chips
- 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1-2 teaspoon liquid red food coloring
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips
- 2 oz Cream cheese softened
- 1-2 teaspoon liquid green food coloring
- Line an 8x8 pan with wax paper or aluminum foil, and then grease it lightly with butter.
- Pour 2½ cups white chocolate chips, the milk chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk into a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds.
- Stir, and microwave in 15 second increments, stirring in-between, until the chocolate chips are melted.
- Add the red food coloring starting with 1 teaspoon and adding more a little at a time until you get the color that you desire.
- Pour the fudge into your prepared pan, and place it in the fridge while you make the cream cheese frosting layer.
- Melt the remaining 1½ cups of white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl.
- Start by microwaving them for 30 seconds, stirring them, and then microwave in 15 second increments, stirring in-between, until they are melted.
- Stir in the softened cream cheese.
- Add the green food coloring starting with 1 teaspoon and adding more a little at a time until you get the color that you desire.
- Pour the cream cheese frosting layer on top of your red velvet fudge and put in the fridge to chill until set, it should be about two hours.
- When you are ready to enjoy your fridge pull it out of the pan using the waxed paper/aluminum foil and place it on a cutting board.
- Cut the fudge into squares using a sharp knife.
- (You'll get even cleaner cuts if you heat your knife blade up first by running hot water over it.)
- Wipe your knife blade occasionally to keep the colors from rubbing into each other.
