Microwave Hot Chocolate Fudge

This Microwave Hot Chocolate Fudge is rich, creamy, and irresistibly indulgent — the kind of treat that tastes like a cozy mug of hot cocoa turned into decadent fudge. With layers of dark and white chocolate and a generous topping of fluffy mallow bits, it delivers that classic hot chocolate flavor in every bite, all without turning on the stove.

The beauty of this recipe is its simplicity. The microwave does all the work, making it perfect for busy holidays, last-minute dessert trays, or anytime you want a chocolate fix with minimal effort. The contrasting layers create a beautiful presentation, while the marshmallows add a nostalgic, soft sweetness that completes the hot chocolate experience.

Ingredients

• 2 cups dark chocolate chips
• 14 ounces sweetened condensed milk, divided
• 1 cup white chocolate chips
• 1½ cups mallow bits (mini hot chocolate marshmallows)

Instructions

1. Prepare the Chocolate Mixtures: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the white chocolate chips with 3 tablespoons of the sweetened condensed milk. Set aside. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips with the remaining sweetened condensed milk, stirring to coat the chips evenly.
2. Prepare the Pan: Line a 9×9-inch square pan with foil, leaving a slight overhang on the sides for easy removal later. Generously grease the foil with butter or shortening, making sure to cover the corners and edges well.
3. Melt the Dark Chocolate Layer: Microwave the dark chocolate mixture for 30 seconds, then stir well. Continue microwaving in 15-second intervals, stirring vigorously after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and spread it evenly with a spatula.
4. Melt the White Chocolate Layer: Microwave the white chocolate mixture for 30 seconds, then stir until smooth and creamy. If needed, heat for an additional 10–15 seconds, stirring until completely melted. Gently spread this layer evenly over the dark chocolate layer.
