Blueberry Fudge
Report
Blueberry Fudge is very easy to make with just 3 ingredients and just a few minutes of prep work. The fudge is sweet, creamy and full of flavor.

Ingredients
- 20 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup freeze dried blueberries
- 1/2 teaspoon Purple gel food coloring optional
Optional Garnish:
- 6 ounces white chocolate melting wafers
- 1/4 cup freeze dried blueberries
Instructions
- Line a 9x9 inch pan with parchment paper so it overhangs on two sides. Set aside.
- Add one cup of freeze-dried blueberries to a food processor. Pulse a few times to turn the berries into a powder.
- Combine the chocolate wafers and condensed milk in a large, microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave in 20-second increments and stir very, very well after each one until the chocolate has melted. It took me two intervals only to melt the chocolate. Make sure you stir well before you microwave again, as the remaining heat will melt the chocolate.
- Note: If you are using regular chocolate, chop it into small pieces before adding it to the bowl to microwave.
- Stir well until smooth. Add the chopped freeze-dried blueberries and stir well to combine.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared pan. If desired, sprinkle freeze-dried dried blueberries on top and drizzle with melted white chocolate. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
- Slice the fudge and serve.
- Fudge can be stored at room temperature for one week or in an airtight container in the fridge for longer.
Notes
- I like using freeze-dried blueberries instead of dried blueberries because they blend better into the fudge. After grinding them in the food processor, they come out nice and smooth, whereas the dried ones are still lumpy. The freeze-dried berries also do not contain any moisture, so they do not add any excess liquid.
- Dried blueberries do not taste as intense as freeze-dried ones. Because freeze-dried berries actually turn into a fine powder, they blend into the chocolate and make the whole thing taste like blueberries. Dried berries will work great for fudge with chewy pieces of blueberries. But freeze-dried blueberries are the best choice for smooth fudge infused with a bold blueberry flavor.
- Use gel food coloring instead of liquid for vibrant color without excess liquid.
- For the smoothest melted chocolate, get chocolate wafers made specifically for melting.
- Also, get the best quality chocolate you can afford.
- To keep the fudge from sticking to the pan, line it with parchment or wax paper.
- Make sure to get sweetened condensed milk instead of evaporated milk.
- Use a large knife and run it under hot water for easier slicing.
