Halloween Midnight Galaxy Fudge

Instructions:

1. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
2. In a saucepan over low heat, melt dark chocolate chips, condensed milk, and butter until smooth. Stir in vanilla extract.
3. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
4. Melt the white chocolate chips separately, then divide into two small bowls. Tint one blue and the other purple with gel food coloring.
5. Drizzle the colored chocolates over the dark base. Use a knife or skewer to swirl gently, creating a galaxy effect.
6. Sprinkle with edible glitter or star-shaped sprinkles.
7. Chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Cut into squares and serve.

Variations

• Cosmic red: Add thin streaks of red food coloring through the swirls for a creepy, comet-like effect.
• Milky Way swirl: Mix a little sweetened condensed milk into the colored chocolate before drizzling for softer, glowing streaks.
• Galaxy crunch: Add crushed cookies or candy pieces into the base for texture.
• Adults-only version: Stir in a splash of coffee liqueur or cherry liqueur to enhance the depth of flavor.

Tips

• For best results, use gel food coloring instead of liquid to avoid thinning the white chocolate.
• Don’t over-swirl—the more defined the colors, the more striking the galaxy effect will be.
• Always allow the fudge to chill completely before cutting to get neat squares with sharp edges.
• Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
