2-Ingredient Valentine’s Fudge

My kids have loved strawberry frosting since they were small. Not just any strawberry frosting, though, store-bought strawberry frosting. One of their favorite snacks was chocolate Teddy Grahams dipped in strawberry frosting. (I suppose they’ll be wanting that “mother-of-the-year” award back when that gets out!) Yes, I would let my kids have that as a treat occasionally. Not daily, but every once in a while.

A few years ago I found this recipe for 2-Ingredient Fudge on cookiesandcups.com. One of the ingredients was a can of strawberry frosting! It is a huge hit every time I make it. This fudge is perfect for Valentine’s Day and an easy recipe to get the little kiddo’s involved in making too.

Ingredients

• 1 (16-oz.) can strawberry frosting
• 1 (12-oz.) bag white chocolate chips

Instructions

1. Prepare a 9 x 9-inch pan by spraying lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
2. Set your microwave at 50% power. Microwave the chocolate in 20-30 second intervals, mixing with a completely dry utensil between every heating session. Chocolate actually retains it’s shape when heated this way, so you need to mix it to test it’s structural integrity. If you are able to mix most of your chocolate smoothly, just keep mixing, as the remaining chips will likely melt.
3. Decrease the intervals in which you heat the chocolate with every session. From 30, go to 20, and 15, and 10, and so on. The line between perfectly heated and very badly heated chocolate is much finer than you might expect.
4. Stir in the strawberry frosting until mixed well.
5. Spread into the prepared pan. Place in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes.
6. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes

Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
