This magical creamy Honeydukes fudge is a melt-in-your-mouth treat inspired by the legendary sweet shop in Harry Potter. Quick, easy, and endlessly adaptable, it’s perfect for movie nights, parties, or as a nostalgic homemade gift.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups granulated sugar (superfine preferred for smooth texture)
  • 1/2 cup whole milk (or evaporated milk for richer finish)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cubed and at room temperature
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 12 oz white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
  • Sprinkles, edible glitter, or gold dust (optional, for topping)
  • Chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts, optional)
  • Mini marshmallows or freeze-dried raspberries (optional)

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or foil, leaving an overhang for easy lifting. Lightly butter or spray the lining.
  2. In a medium saucepan, mix together sugar, milk, butter, and honey. Stir constantly over medium heat until butter melts and mixture is well blended (about 2 minutes).
  3. Continue stirring and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Attach a candy thermometer and cook until it reaches 235°F (soft ball stage). If you don’t have a thermometer, drop a little into cold water; it should form a soft, pliable ball.
  4. Remove pan from heat. Stir in white chocolate chips, vanilla extract, and sea salt. Mix quickly and thoroughly until silky and smooth (about 2-3 minutes).
  5. Scrape mixture into prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Sprinkle with chosen toppings and press gently.
  6. Let fudge cool at room temperature for 2 hours, then transfer to fridge for another 1-2 hours until firm.
  7. Lift out using parchment overhang and slice into bite-sized squares with a sharp knife.

Notes

For extra smooth fudge, use superfine sugar and stir gently but constantly. If mixture seizes before pouring, add an extra tablespoon of milk and stir quickly. Prep all ingredients and toppings before starting, as the recipe moves fast. Fudge can be made dairy-free with plant-based butter and milk, and vegan white chocolate chips.
