Print Recipe

These decadent chocolate-covered strawberry fudge bars combine rich, silky fudge with fresh strawberry flavor and a shiny dark chocolate coating for a perfect, indulgent dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 oz white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup freeze-dried strawberries, crushed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 8 oz dark chocolate
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil
  • Optional toppings: chopped freeze-dried raspberries, toasted coconut flakes, mini chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides for easy removal. Optionally preheat oven to 200°F to warm the pan slightly.
  2. Crush freeze-dried strawberries finely using a food processor or a zip-top bag and rolling pin.
  3. Melt white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk together in a double boiler or microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring until smooth and silky.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract, pinch of salt, and crushed freeze-dried strawberries until fully incorporated.
  5. Pour fudge mixture into prepared pan, smooth the top with a spatula, and tap gently to release air bubbles. Let cool at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  6. Refrigerate fudge for at least 2 hours or until firm.
  7. Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil together gently until glossy and smooth.
  8. Lift fudge from pan using parchment overhang and cut into 16 equal squares with a warm knife.
  9. Dip each fudge square into melted dark chocolate to coat fully, letting excess drip off, then place on parchment-lined tray.
  10. Refrigerate coated bars for 15-20 minutes to set the chocolate shell.
  11. Bring bars to room temperature for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

Use freeze-dried strawberries for best texture; fresh strawberries add moisture and may prevent proper setting. Keep chocolate melting tools dry to avoid seizing. Warm knife before cutting fudge for clean edges. Store bars in airtight container in fridge up to one week or freeze up to 3 months.
