I have actually featured a variety of this fudge before. I got the recipe from my bloggy friend, Alexis. She linked microwave lemon fudge to my weekly linky party way back in September. I made it for my son’s marching band and they LOVED it.

That recipe gets requests all the time. I always let them know that you just have to adjust one ingredient to change the flavor. I always make this for a big group, so I am showing you the doubled recipe. It makes A LOT!

Orange Microwave Fudge Recipe

As you can see, the ingredients are very minimal.

  • white chocolate chips
  • sweetened condensed milk
  • butter
  • orange extract
  • food coloring

I double the original recipe to make a large batch of microwave orange creamsicle fudge.

How to Make Fudge in a Microwave

Fudge seems tricky, but this version is very easy to make!

  1. Soften the butter in a large glass bowl in the microwave.
  2. Add the milk and chips to the bowl.
  3. Microwave for 45 seconds on high, then stir.
  4. Repeat microwaving in 30 seconds increments and stirring until the white chocolate chips are melted.
  5. Stir in the orange extract and food coloring.
  6. Pour into a foil-lined 9×13 dish.
  7. Refrigerate until firm.

This is just part of my slab of fudge. Please cut the recipe in half if you are not serving a bunch of people.

I made this for the boy’s swim team. Many of the kids are also in marching band, so I asked if they prefer lemon or orange. Nearly all of them said the orange. When I run out of this orange extract, I will try another flavor.
