Description
This Halloween fudge recipe creates creepy, brain-shaped chocolate peanut butter fudge with a gooey raspberry ‘blood’ filling. It’s a delightfully gross and delicious treat perfect for spooky celebrations.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup raspberry or strawberry jam (seedless)
- Optional: red food coloring
- Optional: brain-shaped silicone mold
Instructions
- Lightly grease your brain mold or mini muffin tin and place on a freezer-safe tray.
- In a saucepan, combine chocolate chips, peanut butter, condensed milk, and butter. Heat on low, stirring until smooth.
- Remove from heat, stir in salt and vanilla.
- Spoon fudge into each mold cavity, filling halfway and pressing up the sides.
- Place 1 teaspoon raspberry jam in the center of each cavity. Add red food coloring if desired.
- Top with more fudge to cover completely. Smooth the tops.
- Place in freezer for 2–3 hours until firm.
- Remove from molds and serve chilled or at room temperature for the full bleeding effect.
Notes
- Use seedless jam for the smoothest, blood-like effect.
- Work quickly as fudge thickens as it cools.
- Grease molds lightly for easier release.
- Freeze thoroughly before unmolding for best results.
- For extra gore, drizzle red gel icing or extra jam over the top.
