Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups Chocolate Chips Base of the fudge
  • 1 can (14 oz) Sweetened Condensed Milk Adds creaminess and sweetness
  • 1/4 cup Butter Enhances flavor
  • 1-2 tbsp Red Gel Food Coloring For the blood effect, adjust to taste
  • 1 cup Candy Melts Decorative topping and more color

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a saucepan, melt the butter over low heat, then add chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk, stirring until smooth.
  • Remove from heat and mix in the red gel food coloring until desired color is achieved.
  • Pour the fudge mixture into a lined rectangular pan and smooth the top.
  • In a separate bowl, microwave candy melts in 20-second bursts until smooth. Drizzle over the fudge.
  • Use a toothpick or knife to swirl the candy melts into the fudge for a bloody effect.

Setting

  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until firm.
  • Once set, use a butter knife to gently loosen the edges and lift the fudge out of the pan.
  • Cut into squares or use cookie cutters for spooky shapes.

Notes

Store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for longer storage. Use parchment paper to prevent sticking.
