Cinnamon Roll Fudge


  • Author: Jason Miller
  • Total Time: 2 hours 20 minutes
  • Yield: 16 squares 1x

Description

This easy homemade cinnamon roll fudge combines the cozy flavors of cinnamon and vanilla in a creamy, melt-in-your-mouth treat. No baking or yeast required—just quick stovetop prep and a decadent cinnamon swirl for bakery-quality winter dessert squares.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
  • Extra cinnamon-sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang for easy lifting. Lightly grease if desired.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together ground cinnamon, brown sugar, and melted butter until a thick paste forms. Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until melted and smooth, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt until glossy and thick.
  5. Pour half of the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and smooth with a spatula.
  6. Spoon half of the cinnamon swirl over the fudge layer. Use a knife or toothpick to gently swirl it into the fudge.
  7. Pour the remaining fudge mixture on top, then repeat with the rest of the cinnamon swirl. Swirl again for a marbled effect.
  8. Sprinkle nuts and/or extra cinnamon-sugar on top, if using.
  9. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until set. For faster setting, freeze for 45 minutes.
  10. Lift fudge out using parchment, slice into 16 squares, and serve.

Notes

For dairy-free, use coconut condensed milk and vegan butter. For gluten-free, double-check chocolate chips and condensed milk labels. Swirl gently for a marbled look and chill fully before slicing. Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean edges. Fudge keeps up to 2 weeks in the fridge or 2 months in the freezer.
