A cookie crust and white chocolate drizzles makes this Strawberry Shortcake Fudge a fun no bake dessert for any party! Pretty pink fudge recipe that will get smiles from everyone.
Recently, I decided that I want to make fudge all year long. I mean why should the holidays get all the fudge fun. Am I right?
So far this year I have made this Mocha Mallow fudge and this Caramel Hot Chocolate fudge.
I had so many ideas on what kind of fudge I should make today, but I finally decided on strawberry fudge with a cookie crust because I bought most of the stuff a while ago, and it was just sitting there.
Today though, I wanted a fun girly treat. This Strawberry Shortcake fudge turned out so pretty and pink.
It is the perfect treat to make for a baby shower or birthday party.
I love how easy this fudge is. It comes together in just minutes.
How to make Strawberry Shortcake Fudge:
- Stir together cookie crumbs and melted butter and press into the bottom of an 8x8 pan.
- Melt the chocolate chips, butter, salt, and sweetened condensed milk in a pan over low-medium heat.
- Stir in the dry Jello powder and marshmallow cream until melted and creamy.
- Pour the fudge on crust. Refrigerate for a few hours or until set.
- Cut into squares and let it come to room temperature before serving.
PRO TIP: Drizzle the squares with melted white chocolate and add white sprinkles to make the strawberry fudge pretty for parties.

Hi Jocelyn,
I absolutely loved this recipe.
I wanted to share it on my blog with credit to you of course.
Will that be okay?
Hope to hear from you soon.

Any chance of a version of this recipe not using the packets that I can't seem to find?
Jocelyn Brubaker
You could use some strawberry jello powder in place of the packets. I would start with a few Tablespoons first and see how it tastes. I think the whole box of powder would be way too much, so please add a little at a time. The color using the jello powder will be a lot brighter too.

This fudge is also really good with the Bubble Gum or Cotton Candy flavors. I thought it would be something fun for kids to try

Hello, your Strawberry fudge looks absolutely wonderful, but I have never seen any Marshmallow cream for sale over here in the UK, or do you think that it could be called by another name over here???
If anyone does know how I could get some I would be very grateful to here!!
Thank you for sharing the recipe.

I've personally never tried strawberry shortcake fudge and it has an essence or resemblance of cheesecake. I will add this my top new favorite recipes this year.

Oh boy - these look wonderful (and I just happen to have marshmallow cream in my cupboard - it's not common in Australia)... now all I have to do is see if I can find the flavouring too! 🙂 I think they might just be perfect for someone's birthday party! 🙂

These look AWESOME. I've been looking for something to make for a church Valentine's day party. It needed to be something pretty and Valentine's Dayish, and easy enough to make a ton of them. These are perfect. One question, where do you buy the Dannon's frosting creations? By the cake mixes?
Jocelyn Brubaker
I am so glad you liked it. Yes, the Duncan Hines Frosting Creations are in the baking aisle with the canned frosting. Let me know how you like it!!!

Wow, I have to make this! So pretty! And I love strawberries. Also, I love the virtual baby shower idea, I've never seen it before. 🙂
Have a nice weekend!
