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.

These fudge treats are so pretty! And I love the virtual baby shower idea ... super sweet 🙂
Jocelyn Brubaker
Thank you so much Nicole!
Carrie@BakeNoPrisoners
I am so excited about this fudge for 2 reasons: 1. That it is this perfect girly pink! and 2. That is doesn't have real strawberries. My husband has an allergy to strawberries, so I don't necessary make a whole lot of strawberry recipes. But since this is just flavoring, he can totally partake in it! Thanks so much! And congrats to Mandy!!
Jocelyn Brubaker
Yay for a yummy fudge the hubby can eat! I hope he likes it.

These are just beautiful! Makes it hard to stay on my diet. Think I will have to make some of these for your two nieces that are currently visiting us.... and maybe I'll have to taste them.
Jocelyn Brubaker
Diet? What diet? LOL my diet is struggling these days...as are the jeans going up!!! Yes, make these for the girlies...they will love it. I think it might even be gluten free so Jessie can have some...well, other than the cookies I guess. But you could make it in two smaller pans.

Holy cow, Jocelyn, this fudge is beautiful! Love that pink color! Now you've got me thinking about putting some of those Duncan Hines flavor packets to use...I have quite a few of them stock-piled in my baking pantry. 🙂 Fudge sounds like the perfect way to use them!
