Oh if red velvet is your thing, you will LOVE this Red Velvet Fudge Recipe.

I am all out fudge…

I just love chocolaty fudge and this red velvet fudge is just chocolaty enough,

and has a hint of buttermilk that gives red velvet it’s classic flavor.

A little tangy sweetness that makes it recognizable.

It’s so pretty red,

it’s hard to resist.

Perfect for Valentine’s Day too.

In a medium saucepan heat sweetened condensed milk with white chocolate and dark chocolate, when all the chocolate melts remove the saucepan from the stove.

Stir in the marshmallow cream, dry buttermilk (which is available in the baking aisle) along with vanilla extract and red velvet baking emulsion (which is available online or at baking supply stores it’s made by LoRann) mix until creamy smooth.

Place into 2 oz plastic containers and chill in fridge until set about an hour. Alternatively you can put it in an 8×8 parchment lined pan, to slice when it’s set. This fudge is creamy and delicious.

This looks amazing. I love Red Velvet everything and your presentation here is really adorable!

This is so cute! I am going to make this for my niece when I see her!

Lovely! And what adorable single servings and little cups, such a great idea! I’ve never seen dry buttermilk before; I’m curious, in what other instances would you use it?

I use dry buttermilk in many recipes. You can add water to it to make buttermilk, so any recipe requiring buttermilk. Great for sauces, Scones, Pancakes. I’ve been using it for at least 20 years and always have it on hand.

What a fun twist on fudge. I love that you added buttermilk to this. I keep some powdered stuff in the cupboard all the time. I think it’s great for so many things, but never thought to add it to fudge. The tang must be awesome!
