Instructions: Summon Your Fudge Spell

1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips, butter, and condensed milk.
2. Heat in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth and melted.
3. Stir in vanilla extract.

This creamy potion base sets the magic for your Halloween Witch’s Brew Fudge.

2. Divide & Tint the Mixture

1. Separate the fudge mixture evenly into three bowls.
2. Add gel coloring — green in one, purple in another, and black in the last.
3. Stir each until fully blended.

🧙‍♀️ Tip: Use high-quality gel coloring to keep the fudge smooth (avoid water-based dyes).

3. Layer & Swirl

1. Drop spoonfuls of each color randomly into the lined pan.
2. Use a skewer or knife to gently swirl — like stirring a bubbling cauldron.
3. Sprinkle edible glitter, candy eyes, or marshmallows on top.

💡 Don’t over-swirl — a few strokes keep colors defined and vibrant.

4. Chill & Slice

1. Refrigerate for 2–3 hours, or until firm.
2. Lift parchment and cut into small squares.

Each bite looks like a miniature cauldron of magic!

Grammatically, witch’s brew (with the apostrophe) is correct — meaning “a brew belonging to a witch.”

However, “witches brew” (plural) is commonly used in pop culture and recipe titles, so both are accepted. On inasrecipes.com, we use the proper form “Witch’s Brew” for authenticity.
