The perfect combination of sweet and tart, our Blueberry Pie Fudge is made with real blueberries and creamy white chocolate for an irresistible flavor.
I am a big fan of fudge.ย It’s one of those things that is so easy to make and you can make in many different flavors.
I’d be willing to say I have a minimum of 10 fudge recipes on my blog if not more.ย ย I usually make fudge around the holidays but I’m always searching for fun summer fudge recipes.
This recipe is for Blueberry Pie Fudge.ย ย I want to take a minute and say that when I first saw a photo of it I was super excited but also very skeptical.ย ย I know how chocolate reacts to fruit and it isn’t good so I wasn’t sure how this was going to turn out.
Ingredients:
- Blueberries (choose larger berries that will burst open)
- Lemon Juice (fresh is best but you can use bottled)
- sugar
- cornstarch
- sweetened condensed milk (use a name brand, I find store brands too runny)
- white chocolate (you can use white chocolate chips, a bar, or melts)
- butter (I prefer salted in this recipe)
- vanilla extract
Fruit will often make chocolate seize or it adds a ton of moisture so I didn’t think this fudge would set up right but I was willing to try.
I had several issues with this fudge.ย The base of the fudge itself was totally fine and not a problem.ย The problems all came from the blueberries.
I made the recipe as it was written and the blueberries became a hard mess in my pan that was not able to be stirred into my fudge.ย So the next time I made the blueberries I added a little sugar and water.
It left the blueberry sauce thick but spreadable.ย I made the fudge with that but it wouldn’t set up as I thought.ย ย About half of the fudge was edible but the other half was a sloppy mess.
I will say this though.ย The fudge tastes incredible.ย It has flavors of white chocolate, blueberries, and a hint of lemon.ย It really does taste like blueberry pie in a piece of fudge.ย I decided to give the recipe one more shot to see if I could get it to work.

This time I cut the amount of blueberries in half, cooked them over low heat, and added in a little sugar.ย I stirred this mixture into the chocolate and hoped for the best.
The fudge came out soft but it was set and I could pick it up to eat it.ย ย It was a success!ย ย I wrote the recipe with these changes and hope you will give it a try.ย You may need to adjust the amount of blueberries yourself but this recipe is worth the effort!

- 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
- 20 oz. white chocolate
- 2 T. butter
- 1 t. vanilla
Instructions

- In a small saucepan combine the blueberries, lemon juice, sugar and cornstarch. Heat over medium low heat, stirring frequently, until the blueberries start to burst.
- Crush the blueberries as best you can and increase the heat to medium. Cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently so it doesn't burn, cook until the mixture is thick. Remove from heat.

- Remove 3 tablespoons of the blueberry mixture from the pan. Pour the blueberries left in the pan on top of the white chocolate mixture. Using a rubber spatula turn the mixture 3 times just to get it swirled but not mixed together. Pour into prepared pan.
- Place dollops of the remaining blueberries on top of the fudge and use a butter knife to swirl it into the fudge.
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- Remove from refrigerator and use foil to pull it out of the pan. Cut into squares and serve.
