The full ingredients list and instructions are found in the printable recipe card at the end of this post. I highly recommend reading the blog post all the way through so that you don’t miss any tips or substitution suggestions; to ensure that you have all the ingredients and equipment required, and to understand the steps and timings involved.
We binged watched a few Christmas movies this weekend while putting up our tree and decorating for the holidays! It was a little earlier than we would usually do, but 2020 has been a misfire hasn’t it, so it doesn’t matter!
One of the movies was the 2018 animation The Grinch which we’ve never seen before – we thought it was brilliant! (We have watched the classic Jim Carrey live-action version, How The Grinch Stole Christmas, too, and it’s a great watch also.) You can watch these movies on Amazon Prime.
Both of course, are based on the classic Dr. Seuss book about that mean old Mr. Grinch who is fed up with the festive cheer in the town of Whoville, which he looks over from his clifftop home.
The green Grinch creates mayhem and steals Christmas from the residents of Whoville, but realises that Christmas is so much more than a tree, and presents, and eating roast beast!
And when he realises that Christmas doesn’t come from the store, his heart grows three times in size!
So, after a thoroughly festive weekend, I simply had to share this recipe for Grinch Fudge!
Fudge is ridiculously easy to make, and this white chocolate fudge is no exception. It’s colored green (of course) and covered in sprinkles. Don’t forget the heart-shaped sprinkles too, they are what really make this fudge Grinch-themed!
Nosh on this yummy fudge yourself, or make a double batch and give out as gifts to friends, family members, or people in your community.
It lasts for up to one week at room temperature in an airtight container, or up to three weeks when store in the fridge.
Ingredients & Equipment Used In This Recipe
You may already have some of the ingredients for this recipe – the full list with measurements is found in the recipe card at the end of this post.
For your convenience, any specialized or notable ingredients and equipment needed for this recipe have been listed below and linked to Amazon, Amazon Fresh, or other stores if available online.
- White Chocolate Chips
- Sweetened Condensed Milk
- Pure Vanilla Extract
- Green Food Coloring – it is important that you use an oil-based food coloring or one that is designed to color chocolate. Adding a liquid food coloring can make the candy seize up and become unuseable. In the UK we have a brand called Sugarflair which is my preferred brand. They make colors specifically for coloring chocolate.
- Christmas Sprinkles – Sprinkle Pop creates a mix called “Who Hash” which is what we used, but you can use any mix of sprinkles that you like, you will need about 1½ cups total for the fudge.
- Heart-shaped Sprinkles – try and space the hearts out so that each piece of fudge has a heart on it!
- 9″ x 13″ Dish
- Wax Paper
Recipes on The Purple Pumpkin Blog use both cup measurements and/or weighted measurements. American cups and kitchen food scales are handy pieces of equipment to have in your kitchen as it means you’ll be able to make all of the different recipes on my blog! I try to give American, imperial, and metric measurements in my recipes. You can mix cup measurements with weighted measurements, but never imperial (pounds, ounces, pints, etc.,) with metric (kilograms, grams, litres, etc.,).
