Equipment

  • 8x8 Square Pan
  • Parchment Paper

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Buttercream Frosting 16 ounces
  • ¾ Cup Red Candy Melts
  • ¾ Cup Strawberry Flavored Pink Candy Melts
  • 1 Teaspoon Strawberry Extract
  • Valentine’s Mix Non-Pareils Sprinkles
  • Pink and Red Heart Sprinkles optional

Instructions

  • Place the red candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat on high, in the microwave, at 30-second intervals for 2-3 minutes or until smooth when stirred. Stop every 15-30 seconds to stir during the melting process to ensure the candy melts don’t overcook.
  • Be sure to stir during the melting process to ensure the candy melts don’t overcook.
  • Follow step one for the pink candy melts, keeping the two colors separated.
  • Remove the lid and film from the frosting and place it in the microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute, or until fully melted and smooth. Set aside ½ a teaspoon of uncooked frosting if using the heart sprinkles.
  • Add the extract to the frosting and stir well.
  • Place half of the frosting in with the red candy melts and the other half with the pink candy melts.
  • Stir each color vigorously until fully mixed.
  • Line your pan with parchment paper, making sure to leave some overhang on the sides of the pan or baking dish.
  • Alternate pouring in the two colors in random spots, into the prepared pan.
  • Take time to tap the pan in between so it evens out and removes bubbles.
  • Once all your chocolate mixtures have been poured in and evened out, sprinkle the top of the fudge with as many Valentine’s themed non-pareils as you like.
  • Place in the fridge to chill for 2 hours or until hardened.
