On Pinterest I have been pinning fudge recipes. It is just not Christmas without fudge :) I decided to find some recipes that were different from what I usually make. I pinned some Oreo fudge and made it. It was good. I also pinned some Rootbeer float fudge and made that. It was awesome! I pinned one that said it was cake batter fudge but when I read the recipe, it didn't have any cake batter in it. It only had a few ingredients and I just wasn't convinced that it was going to do it for me. So, I made up my own recipe!!!
When I make up recipes I make small batches so if I mess up I won't be wasting as much. So I have the recipe for a small batch that fits in a small casserole dish and you can double it to fit in a large casserole dish.
Cake Batter Fudge
(small batch)
¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
1 package white chocolate chips
¾ cup yellow cake mix (dry)
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup marshmallow cream
(big batch)
1 can (14 oz) of sweetened condensed milk
2 packages of white chocolate chips
1 ½ cups yellow cake mix (dry)
½ cup heavy whipping cream
2 cups marshmallow creme
In a heavy duty sauce pan add the chocolate chips, cake mix, and the sweetened condensed milk. Stir while on low heat until the chocolate chips melt. then add whipping cream and marshmallow creme and stir until mixed well. Pour into a greased pan. Sprinkle on the sprinkles! Let sit until firm. Cut with warm sharp knife to get nice clean lines.
* This recipe, like all fudge recipes that do not have butter and sugar, takes a little longer to set up. I like to make mine the day before I need it. But you can eat it before that if you want.
It is so totally worth the extra time it takes to set up. Your patience will be rewarded with the creamiest fudge ever!
If you find you are having trouble with it setting up then leave out the heavy cream. I think it may be an elevation issue. I have never had an issue and others that live here and those in similar elevations have not had an issue but I had a read who lived at a lower elevation who said it never set up.
Oh Yum! I have lots of cake batter wasting away in my cabinet. We own a bakery, so I don't usually make cake at home, but I keep some in the pantry on standby just in case Prince Charming is too busy. I will be trying this VERY soon!
Lisa!

I will be happy to vouch for this delectable recipe! Since I am allergic to Chocolate, I always miss out on the fudge. So happy to have an alturnitive!
This tasted amazing Stacy! Thanks for sharing the recipe and the plate full on Sunday!
Yay Stacy!! I have been waiting for this since you posted on FB about it!! I had a fudge fail a couple of weeks ago so I am excited to try again! Your recipe looks a bit easier too so I am hoping I will be successful! Thanks!
Can we have the recipe for that rootbeer float fudge?
I'm just clarifying, the cake mix is dry, right? One never knows :)
yep!
I wonder if you could use chocolate chips, and chocolate cake mix, to make chocolate cake batter fudge?? :)
Oh my goodness--love the sprinkles on there! What a cute pic. Can only imagine how good it tastes.
This looks SO delicious! I can't wait to try this
Do you think it would still taste decent with funfetti cake mix?
OK, is there some sort of secret to getting it to set? I have made this twice now, and it will not set up. It's delicious, but very very sticky and ugly because it won't cut into squares. The second time, I let it sit in the pan for 2 days and it is still not set. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
The same thing is happening to me. I've even tried to refrigerate it and nothing's helping.
I bought all the stuff to make this before Christmas but just got around to make it today finally. WOW! Good stuff! :)
Of course, I haven't waited long enough yet to see if it will set up right or not. I'm just going off of licking the spoon....and maybe the pot. ;)
Stacy, I just ran across your blog this morning and if course it stood out to me because my name is Stacy too and spelled the same way. I pinned this recipe and with in 2 minutes it had 30 repins. I hope it brings people to your blog. I love the stuff you have done with your home.
