Ingredients

Fudge Base:

  • White chocolate chips: 2 cups
  • Butter: 2 tablespoons
  • Vanilla frosting: 1 (16 oz) container

Add-ins:

  • Butterfinger baking bits: 1 cup, divided
  • Mini Reese’s Pieces: 1 cup, divided

Tools You’ll Need

  • 8×8-inch baking dish – for setting the fudge
  • Parchment paper – to line the baking dish
  • Microwave-safe bowl – for melting the chocolate and butter
  • Spatula – for spreading and mixing
  • Sharp knife – for slicing into squares

How to Make Butterfinger Reese’s White Chocolate Fudge

1. Prepare the Fudge Base

Line an 8×8 inch baking dish with parchment paper or aluminum foil, and lightly grease it with butter or non-stick spray. This makes it easier to remove the fudge after it’s set.

In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well between each interval, until the chocolate and butter mixture is completely melted and smooth.

2. Add Vanilla Frosting

Remove the melted chocolate-butter mixture from the microwave, and quickly stir in the entire container of vanilla frosting. Stir until fully combined and creamy.

3. Mix in Butterfinger and Reese’s Pieces

Now it’s time for the candy! Stir in 1/2 cup of Butterfinger baking bits and 1/2 cup of mini Reese’s Pieces. Ensure they’re evenly distributed throughout the fudge mixture for a perfect balance of flavor in every bite.

4. Pour and Top the Fudge

Pour the fudge mixture into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. For an extra pop of color and texture, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Butterfinger bits and 1/2 cup of mini Reese’s Pieces over the top of the fudge. Gently press them down so they stick.

5. Chill and Set

Place the dish in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set. Patience is key here to ensure the fudge holds together nicely when sliced.

6. Slice and Serve

Once the fudge is fully set, lift it out of the dish using the parchment paper. Use a sharp knife to cut it into small squares—perfect for serving or gifting!


What to Serve with Butterfinger Reese’s White Chocolate Fudge

This fudge is indulgent all on its own, but if you’d like to make it part of a dessert platter, it pairs wonderfully with fresh fruit, salted pretzels, or even a scoop of vanilla ice cream!


Tips for the Perfect Fudge

  1. Microwave Carefully: White chocolate can burn easily. Be sure to microwave in short bursts and stir often.
  2. Press Toppings Gently: This helps them adhere better to the fudge.
  3. Use Room Temperature Ingredients: This can help ensure a smoother consistency when mixing the fudge base.

Storage Instructions

Once cut, store your fudge squares in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They’ll keep well for up to two weeks—if they last that long! You can also freeze them for up to two months for a ready-made treat anytime.
