Making this homemade only takes a few minutes of prep time, so you don’t have to worry about spending all day in the kitchen. Just follow these step-by-step directions and you will have a delicious sweet treat to share with your family and friends in no time at all.
Step 1: Prepare your baking sheet
Line an 8 X 8 inch pan with Parchment paper, and make sure you leave the paper hanging over the sides to help lift the fudge out once it’s set.
Step 2: Melt the chocolate in a saucepan
Place the Sweetened Condensed Milk in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Break up the Milk Chocolate, and add it to the pan. Melt the Milk Chocolate into the sweetened condensed milk, stirring to combine the melted chocolate and milk.
Step 3: Finish the fudge
Remove the saucepan from the heat, and pour into the lined 8 X 8-inch pan. Press the Cadbury Creme Eggs into the melted chocolate in the pan, and sprinkle pastel Sprinkles all over the Fudge.
Step 4: Chill the fudge
Place the Fudge in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or overnight for best results. After the Fudge is set (at least 6 hours) remove from the refrigerator, and cut into small one-inch squares, serve, and Enjoy!

💭 Tips
Here are a few tips to ensure your easter fudge turns out perfectly every time:
- Don’t Rush the Melting Process: When melting the chocolate with the sweetened condensed milk, keep the heat low and stir constantly. This prevents the chocolate from burning and ensures a smooth, creamy texture.
- Press in the Eggs Gently: After pouring the chocolate mixture into the pan, gently press the Cadbury eggs into the surface. If you press too hard, they might sink to the bottom.
- Chill Thoroughly: Patience is key when waiting for the fudge to set. It’s tempting to cut into it early, but chilling it for at least 6 hours, or ideally overnight, gives you the best texture.
- Use a Hot Knife for Clean Cuts: Before cutting your fudge, run your knife under hot water and dry it. This will help you make clean cuts through the fudge without it sticking to the knife.
