Equipment

9x9 inch pan
Parchment paper or foil
Microwave-safe bowls 3 bowls for layers
Spatula for spreading each layer
Sharp Knife for cutting into pieces

Ingredients

6 cups white chocolate chips (2 cups per layer)
2 14 oz cans sweetened condensed milk (⅔ cup per layer)
3 tsp vanilla extract (1 tsp per layer)
6 tbsp butter (2 tbsp per layer)
orange gel food coloring
yellow gel food coloring
cooking spray
parchment paper or foil for lining pan

Instructions

Line a 9x9 inch pan with parchment or foil, leaving overhang. Lightly spray with cooking spray. This helps remove the fudge cleanly after chilling.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 2 cups white chocolate chips, ⅔ cup condensed milk, and 2 tbsp butter. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted and smooth. Add 1 tsp vanilla and orange food coloring. Mix well and pour into the prepared pan. Spread evenly and refrigerate 20–30 min until firm.
Repeat the same process using yellow food coloring. Ensure the orange layer is firm before pouring. Spread yellow layer evenly and chill again 20–30 minutes until firm.
Repeat again for the final white layer (no coloring this time). Pour over the yellow layer, smooth out, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until completely firm. Optional: freeze for 45 min to speed things up.
Lift the fudge out using the parchment overhang and place on a cutting board. Cut into squares or triangles. For cleaner cuts, warm your knife under hot water and wipe between slices.

Notes

Use gel food coloring for best color results. Let each layer chill and fully set before adding the next to avoid blending. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks at room temperature. Try triangle cuts to mimic real candy corn!
