Blueberries and fudge

This fudge is made with fresh blueberry pie filling, so you know it will be packed with flavor. The blueberries add a tartness that balances out the sweetness of the white chocolate.

As I grew up in New England, my family would grow blueberries in our own garden. As kids, my siblings and I always got Blueberry Pie Fudge for snacks after long hours of running around and playing. I found them stunning. The pale white chocolate fudge swirled with vibrant blueberries is just irresistible! One small square is just never enough. I always had to have at least two. Even now that I’m older, it is still challenging to stop myself from getting a third!

Since I learned the recipe, I’ve made this fudge for many of my own friends and family. They always rave about how good it is, and I have to agree; it really is the best! It’s rich and chocolatey, with just the right amount of tartness. I love how it’s not too rich, so you can enjoy it without feeling overwhelmed the moment you take a bite.

The recipe is pretty simple. You start by making a blueberry pie filling, then you fold in some chocolate chips and cream. That’s it! The longest part of the process is waiting for it to set in the fridge — but trust me, it’s worth the wait.

This fudge is perfect for sharing. It’s great for potlucks, parties, and holiday gatherings. If you’re looking for a gift that’s sure to please, the Blueberry Pie Fudge is a great option! I never fall short in satisfying my loved ones with this dessert!
