Now, on to this fudge!
I used Andes Peppermint Baking Chips to give the bottom layer a creamy texture with peppermint flavor. Then, I went one more step and topped the fudge with some Mini Peppermint Marshmallows and White Candiquik…and some broken candy cane pieces!
Easy. Delicious. And would be a perfect gift for family, friends, neighbors, teachers…you get the drift! ENJOY.

GIVEAWAY IS OVER!!!
Peppermint Fudge
Creamy Peppermint Fudge topped with marshmallow and candy canes.
Ingredients
- 1 bag (12oz) white chocolate morsels
- 1 bag (10oz) Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips
- 7oz jar marshmallow creme
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 cup granulated sugar
- pinch of salt
- 1 pkg (16oz) vanilla Candiquik, melted
- 3 cup Mini Peppermint Marshmallows
- 5 peppermint candy canes, broken
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, add white chocolate morsels, Andes baking chips and marshmallow creme. Set aside.
- Prepare a 13x9 baking dish by lining it with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In medium saucepan, heat butter, heavy cream, sugar and salt over medium high heat. Bring to a boil and continue stirring. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat.
- Pour over morsels and marshmallow creme, beating with a whisk until smooth and melted. (I highly suggest using an electric stand or handheld mixer- this fudge is thick)! Pour fudge into prepared baking dish.
- Melt vanilla candiquik according to package directions. Allow to cool slightly (a couple minutes). Fold in mini marshmallows and pour over top of fudge. Immediately sprinkle with broken candy canes. Allow fudge to set, about 2-3 hours. Cute into bites and enjoy!

Your Peppermint Fudge is about the prettiest treat I’ve ever seen! Can’t wait to try to make it. Where would I look for the Andes Peppermint Baking Chips & Peppermint Marshmallows? I’ve never seen either. I live in northwest WA.
My favorite Christmas treat are the round pecan balls rolled in p.sugar. My mom now
sends me a large tin of them for Christmas each year. She’s in poor health now so I’m not likely to get any this year. May have to make my own.
Your Christmas Giveaway would sure come in handy in making this fudge. I’m very low income & making treats around the holidays is a luxury. Will keep an eye out for you on Facebook & your blog.
Have a Merry Christmas!
Linda

Yummy looking fudge, & nice giveaway 🙂
What a great Christmas recipe! I’d love for you to share this or any of your great ideas at the link party going on now (and every Saturday – Tuesday)at ‘Or so she says …’ http://www.oneshetwoshe.com
Wow Aimee, these are incredibly beautiful. I love the colours and everything. I bet they’re incredible.
If you don’t mind, I’d love if you would stop by and share these and any other dessert creations on Sugar & Slice Sunday weekly link party.
Made these tonight for a party tomorrow. Thanks for the share!
Sandi, let me know what your party go-ers think! YUM!
Made Cookies and Cream fudge and the Peppermint fudge for my co-workers at school….I am their favorite cook!
That looks SO GOOD! I really wish I could reach through the screen and have a piece right now – LOL! 🙂
Tried making this, but had a problem. After heating the appropriate ingredients. I poured the heated mixture over the other ingredients as directed above. However, my mixture was not smooth. Can anyone help, what did I do wrong?
Hmmm, did use use a mixer with a whisk attachment or a hand whisk? Either should work, but hand whisking would take a little longer. The hot mixture should not have had any problems! I wish I had a better answer for you! Without being in your kitchen (wouldnt that be fun) I really cant tell you what went wrong. The only thing I can think is you didnt mix long enough after adding hot mixture! Sorry 🙁
Thanks for the reply. I hand mixed it rather than used an electric mixer. Maybe I’ll try again and use an electric mixer, I must have gave up too quickly. One other question. Is there another version of the Anede’s banking chips? The kind I got made the mixture more brown then pink as shown in the picture.
Thanks,
I just made a batch of this fudge and mine didn’t turn out creamy either. I used an electric whisk in mine. In fact mine had some kind of red oily liquid seeping out if it. I followed directions just as written. I am now waiting on it to cool so I can hopefully have it turn out right.
I’ve made this fudge twice now (and it’s my basic recipe). I’m not quite sure why it didn’t turn out for you. I wonder if there was a bad batch of these baking chips? Both times mine turned out pink and pretty. I would just say, double check the ingredients, and cooking time. Sorry Jennifer!
I am glad to reply that once it sat up in the fridge it turned out great. I did however, pour out some of that red oily juice that seemed to appear after everything was mixed, before I placed it in the fridge. Both my husband and in-laws loved it. I will be making this again to give as a gift along with some other treats to my husbands bosses and fellow employees. I’m also going to try making it with milk chocolate morsels and see how it turns out.
I’m glad to hear they set up good for you and you enjoyed them. I’m still not quite sure what that red oily juice was, but glad it posed no problem to the end result!! Thanks for letting me know how they turned out!
Hey does this need to be refrigerated or can it be stored at room temp? Looks AMAZING would love to make as gifts 😀 Thanks!
This looks wonderful cant wait to make it!
I had seen this recipe on Pinterest and finally got the chance to try it. I had followed all of the ingredients and directions posted above. I had expected the fudge itself to turn pink, like the picture shows. Instead, it was brown. This had me confused and wondering if the picture was the result of the directions, or possibly belonged to a different recipe. When I had started mixing my boiled mixture with the morsels, baking chips, and marshmallow creme, it was extremely thick and constantly oozing butter. Before pouring in the pan to set, I had to drain all of the sitting butter twice! The outcome, however, had set successfully, still looking nothing like the picture posted.
Mine turned out just as pictured, did you maybe use the chocolate andes baking bits instead of the white peppermint crunch one? That would make the difference perhaps 🙂 there isn’t anything brown listed in the recipe so that would be strange otherwise 🙂
My husband picked up the regular andes chips and mine was also brown. I had an issue with it not being creamy when I added it to the chip mixture. I actually put it back on some heat to help melt it a little better. Mine is very oozy with oil also. I intended to make two batches for my sons Christmas party at school, but waiting to see how the first batch turns out once I refrigerate it. Hopefully it is still good.
what and where do I get candiquick?
Hi Tammy,
Candiquik can be disguised under several names. Some stores will call it vanilla candy coating…or vanilla almond bark. It’s usually found in the same section as your chocolate chips, and it’s sold in a solid chunk. Hope this helps!
Hi, I made this fudge last night. I am happy with how it turned out. Except its not pink…I know there are a few others who had the same problem, I just don’t see an answer for the problem we’ve all had. I don’t understand how it could be pink with out having some sort of food coloring. And even then, with having the chocolate andes mints in there, how would it turn pink anyway? Please answer my question, thank you!
Using the ANdes Peppermint Chips vs. Andes MINT chips. The peppermint are red/white and will make it pink 🙂
Had the same problem that it was not smooth and it was oily as well.
I can’t imagine why this is not smooth for some of you. You are using the Andes Peppermint Crunch Baking chips? I am making this again on Monday, I will try to take photos of the process and update my post with those photos!!!
I used the Andes peppermint crunch chips. One thought I had after poking around online was that the sugar, butter, cream mixture boiled too long or too high. Almost all other recipes online call for a candy thermometer. Maybe the temp got too high and crystallized? I am not sure.
Hmmm, maybe for grins and giggles I will stick my candy thermometer in there too on Monday and check out the temp for you all!! Thanks for the feedback!
Hi there, just made the peppermint fudge. The first layer seemed greasy to me. I blotted it before I added the marshmallow/candiquik layer. Is that normal or did I do something wrong. By the way I made the red velvet triffle for thanksgiving and they practically liked the bowl. I added some rasberries as part of the layers and then I also soaked the cake layer with ameretto liquer. It was delicious!! thanks for the great recipe.
I was so excited to try this recipe! I’ve since tried to make it 2 times and both haven’t turned out. The first time I followed the directions perfectly and it turned into a thick paste surrounded by liquid! The second time I decided to use a candy thermometer to get it to the accurate 234°F and I got the same results, just not as much liquid! Not sure what’s wrong with this recipe but I’m dissapointed it didn’t turn out. 🙁
I made two more batches this week, and honestly am not sure why there is trouble. The batter definitely is thick, but there should be no liquid. Are you using an electric mixer to whisk in the chips and marshmallow?
I am whisking it by hand. After continuously blotting the red liquid/oil away and refrigerating for a few hours it has hardened and all liquid is gone. When mixing it was very thick and grainy, but the final result isn’t as grainy. Should I try using a mixer in the future? You should make a post with step by step photos for the baking impaired like myself! LOL 🙂
I think I might have to do a video on this one 🙂
The fudge is very thick, so I do suggest using a handheld or stand mixer (I updated the recipe to include that). I still am not sure about the liquid, the only thing I can think is because I use a stand mixer I never saw it (it just mixed it all up for me)?
Hope this helps!
Hi, the same thing just happened to me and I used my Kitchen Aid mixer…wow, what a complete mess, the liquid splattered everywhere and yes I followed the directions to the letter…the paste tastes good, so will carry on and let it set up in the fridge.
Hmmm, not sure about why that would happen still! Hope it turned out okay.
I love your recipe but I am confused as to what candiquik is. I have never heard of that and have been searching everywhere for it! Is it like the chocolate/candy wafers used for candy making that they sell at Michaels? From the directions, that’s what it sounds like…..
Candiquik is also sometimes called vanilla bark, or almond bark. It’s sold in a block usually in the grocery store next to the chocolate chips. Hope this helps!
Thanks for sharing this recipe! My friend and I made it for our holiday baking, and I used mine in some gift baskets and everyone has loved them! I also a while ago made your chocolate cherry fudge recipe and that looked so beautiful and also got a lot of rave reviews and requests for the recipe. They were both so easy to make too.
Thanks for the feedback Renae! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe! Have a great holiday!
I’m sorry, but all I had was a big puddle of oil on my fudge. I used my hand mixer as suggested, and even had my husband try to mix it up. This recipe cost a lot of money to make and you should not have a fudge with oil sitting on the top.
Jennifer, maybe the secret is to pour off the oil. My problem is you shouldn’t have to pour off the oil. It should mix with the other ingredients. I’m disappointed because it cost so much to make it and then have it flop.
I can’t figure out why several of you have oil in your mixture! I’ve now made this half a dozen times, with no problems. I think I might have to do a video or step by step photos! It is a very thick fudge base, but it shouldn’t be oily. Unless Andes product varies by batch, because many have commented and made this just fine, while others are having issues with oil!? I’m so sorry, I know how frustrating it can be when a recipe results in wasted ingredients.
Aimee, I wonder if it has something to do with humidity. I also wonder if I beat it too long with my hand mixer. Maybe I should have stopped when it was crumbles and patted it into the pan. It’s not your fault! It’s just disappointing! It’s pretty though!
I have made this a few times this holiday season. Each time I get the oily substance that seems to seep from the mixture. I just simply pour most of the oil off and proceed as directed by the recipe and each time it sets up quite beautifully in the fridge. Has been a BIG hit with everyone that I have some too
I didn’t pour off the oil and proceeded on to the topping. Have no idea where the oil went, but it looked perfect when I cut it! This is probably my new “favorite fudge!”
I got my daughter to make this over the Christmas holiday’s. This was THE BEST treat we had during the whole holiday season. Even my finicky cat loves it! We already bought the ingredients to make it for Valentine’s Day – beautiful pink color. We’re trying to find a way to adapt the recipe to Heath toffee bits.
Wonderful photos!
And looks really delicious!!
Love your homemade candies and sweets! Love peppermint! Unfortunately in Germany are many ingredients not available :(( Last year I bought peppermint via A_mazon in the USA, so I have some to make delicious sweets (made chocolate pops). But where will i get ‘Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips’?
Your recipes are gorgeous!
Best wishes
Manuela
Wow! These look incredible! How did they turn out? Very sweet? They look ssssoooo delicious!
I’ve never seen peppermint marshmellows?
I found them at Walmart last year. You can always use regular marshmallows with extra peppermint candy.
I would love to make the peppermint fudge but I have never seen mini peppermint marshmellows. Where can I find them.
I found them at Walmart. You can use regular mini marshmallows if you can’t find them. There is plenty of peppermint in the recipe 🙂
I love making candy for the holidays. I make a few different flavors of fudge each season but never thought to use the white baking chips. I usually make chocolate with crushed peppermint but your looks so pretty I’m going have to give it a try this year.
Hello, I have been trying to print out the recipe, but it wont let me, I would love to make these
when I hit print it comes up blank page, and then I tried to highlight and print and it wont let me do that to, could you please help me so i can print this out
thank you
Sorry, not sure why it’s not working. Could be your printer set up, the print button works fine on my end…
Hello
I cannot find andes peppermint fudge baking chips, or the peppermint marshmallows,
What could I use in place of these?
I just found these this past weekend at Walmart.
I would love to make peppermint fudge , never had it , I am sure it’s really good , it’s also pretty .
I made this tonight and it is setting now. I also had the oily issue. I *think* it is just the melted andes peppermint crunch bits causing the oily red liquid. I didn’t pour it off, just hoping it sets well and cuts up nicely so my husband can take it to work tomorrow. It looks good, although I was a little disconcerted by the oil. I also followed the recipe exactly, even setting a timer while the liquid was boiling.
Thanks so much for this great recipe! I made 2 batches last night, one for a bake sale and the other for family and gifts. It turned out wonderful! It’s such a pretty color, it’s flying off the table at the bake sale!!
I made this this afternoon and I too had the “problem” of the excess red liquid. I boiled the stuff for exactly 5 minutes as directed and used an electric mixer. It made a huge mess. I scooped the base layer out of the bowl so I avoided the majority of the liquid getting into the pan. I still had some but it did set up well and tastes great.
Am wondering if you have to keep this refrigerated due to the heavy whipping cream? Thanks (:
I usually keep my fudge in the refrigerator to keep it chilled.
Made this last night for gift giving. It came out perfect. So rich and yummy… Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe. Merry Christmas!
Would love to make this fudge – need to think of some substitutions as a couple of the ingredients are not available in South Africa, i.e.
1 bag (12oz) white chocolate morsels
1 bag (10oz) Andes Peppermint Crunch baking chips
7oz jar marshmallow creme
1 pkg (16oz) vanilla Candiquik, melted
3 cup Mini Peppermint Marshmallows
Hmmm, that’s a lot of substitutions. Since I’m not familiar with the products you do have available, unfortunately I can’t help. Maybe try googling what you can substitute? Good luck!
So sad… we live in Australia and cant get most of these ingredients. Boo hoo. 🙁 It looks beautiful.
Boo hoo is right!!
I made this fudge tonight, and it is wonderful. Easy and delicious! I’m giving part of it to my daughter tomorrow for Valentine’s Day. I placed it in a white box with red tissue paper, and it’s so pretty. Thanks for sharing your recipe Aimee. It’s a keeper!
Hi Denise,
So glad you enjoyed the fudge!! I”m sure your daughter will love it 🙂

Hi, Just found this site and recipe. Would this fudge work to pour into the silicone brownie bites mold? I have a cookie exchange that I’ll need to make 144 treats for and would like to make my life simple.
Also, what makes the fudge pink? is there food coloring involved?
Honestly I think you’re better off making this in a pan and cutting it up. If you line your pan with foil or parchment it pops right out! The melted Andes Peppermint Crunch chips give it the pink color 🙂

So forgot candi quick, so instead I scattered and pressed mini peppermint marshmallows and the crushed peppermint candies into the top of the freshly poured fudge. Pretty to look at and delicious! Not too sweet and peppermint taste was not over the top. Amazing recipe. Definitely a keeper.
That sounds amazing 🙂

I had to let you know that I love this recipe. I’ve made it a few years now and I am very happy to report the Andes Peppermint Crunch is available through Amazon now. SCORE! My grocery stores in Texas do not stock it and Target is ALWAYS sold out. Last year, I spent three hours opening and chopping…NOT a good idea. LOL.
Everyone loves the fudge and it’s a big hit for something sweet after all the savory Christmas eats.
Merry Christmas,
Kim
