Poison Apple Fudge
A spooky Halloween fudge recipe made with white chocolate that’s bright green and black in color and apple-flavored.
Poison Apple Fudge
It’s spooky season and that means it’s time for Halloween treats and Halloween parties!
This no bake Halloween fudge is soooo cool right?? The green and black color combo is eye-catching and the flavors are an interesting and delicious blend of white chocolate and green apple. It tastes like a candy apple! But since it’s Halloween, we’re calling this a “poison apple” just like the kind that the evil witch gave Snow White!
Essentially, this is a white chocolate fudge dessert that we tweaked just a bit to add the apple flavoring and bright colors. It’s made in three layers, but it is only two bowls of fudge batter, so it’s a surprisingly easy recipe to prepare. The only thing to keep in mind is that you’ll need to allot time for the fudge to chill and set.
So let out your inner kid and let’s get cooking!

Instructions
This recipe is made in two steps: the green fudge layer is prepared first, then we make a batch of black fudge to create the top and bottom layers. It’s surprisingly simple to make, but you’ll just want to make sure you have plenty of time to allow the fudge to chill at set.
To Make The Green Layer
- Line a 8-inch square pan with parchment paper.
- Remove the top from the can of sweetened condensed milk and stir in the green food coloring until the milk is bright green.
- Add the green condensed milk to a saucepan, along with the white chocolate chips and butter. Warm over medium heat, stirring frequently, until melted and smooth.
- Stir in the green apple extract, then pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan. Allow to harden completely.
To Make The Black Layers
- Remove the green fudge from the pan and peel off the parchment paper. Place a new layer of parchment paper in the bottom of the pan.
- Remove the top from the sweetened condensed can and stir in the black food coloring, until the milk is a black color.
- Pour the black colored condensed milk into a clean saucepan along with white chocolate chips and butter. Heat over medium or medium low until melted and smooth. Stir frequently.
- Stir in the green apple extract and pour half of the black fudge into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Take the block of green fudge and place on top of the black layer. Gently tree sown, but not so much that you push the black fudge mixture through.
- Pour the remaining black fudge on top and spread with a spatula as needed to cover the entire green later.
- Cover with foil or lid and place the pan in the fridge to chill and harden.
Prep Tips
- We cut the fudge into blocks that were about 1 1/2 inch in size, which yields 32 bite-size servings. You can always slice into larger pieces if desired.
- I recommend using a high-quality white chocolate for this recipe, as you can taste the difference! We love Ghirardelli, but you can use your favorite brand too. I linked to another type in our ingredients list because it can be tricky to find Ghirardelli at a good price online, but you should be able to find it readily in stores.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is The Best Way To Store Homemade Fudge?
Homemade fudge does not require refrigeration, but it will last longer when kept in the refrigerator.
- Fudge stored at room temperature will last 1-2 weeks.
- Fudge store in the fridge will last up to a month.
Place your fudge in an airtight container or a gallon freezer bag. You may want to place parchment paper between layers to prevent the fudge squares from sticking to each other.
Can You Use The Microwave Instead Of Stovetop?
Yes, you can microwave to melt the white chocolate chips, but the order of things will be slightly different. You’ll also want to make sure to use a microwave-safe bowl and handle with care, as they may become hot during preparation.
If microwaving, place the white chocolate chips into a heat-safe bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, until melted and smooth. Stir in the butter and the colored condensed milk. Then finish preparing the fudge as described in the instructions above.
