how to make 3 ingredient Christmas tree fudge
This fudge recipe is so easy! You’ll only need 3 ingredients to make your very own festive Christmas trees. When you’re ready, here’s what you’ll need:
fudge Ingredients
- 2 cups green candy melts or almond bark

- Your favorite Christmas inspired sprinkles
That’s it! Just those 3 things and you’re ready to get started creating your own fudgy Christmas tree forest. Here’s how:
Directions:
- Place half of the candy sprinkles in the cavities of a Christmas tree silicone candy mold (or ice cube tray). Set aside. I like this one HERE!
- Place the candy melts or almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl and heat for 25 seconds. Stir well and reheat as needed until candy is completely melted.
- Stir the sweetened condensed milk into the melted candy melts. Remember, more sweetened condensed milk will result in a softer texture.
- Spoon the candy melt mixture into the silicone tray. Add more sprinkles on top of the wet candy melts.
- Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for one hour before popping out of the tray.
