Butterbeer Fudge Recipe (1)

If you’ve never tried butterbeer, you don’t know what you’re missing! My youngest and I have loved this popular drink ever since we first tried it at Harry Potter World in Universal Studios. We’ve even started making our own copycat Harry Potter Butterbeer recipe (SO easy!).

Last time I was at Universal, I popped into Sugarplum’s Sweet Shop in Diagon Alley and discovered their butterbeer fudge.

Step 4: Spread the mixture in a parchment paper lined 8×8 square pan. I used a nonstick pan but you can use a glass pan too. Place in the freezer to set while you make the white vanilla layer.

Step 9: Once the butterbeer fudge is chilled, place it on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into squares. I found that cutting 30 squares gave you the perfect bite size pieces.

How to store butterbeer fudge

Chance are, you won’t have any left over but if you do, just place your fudge in an airtight container and store at room temperature.

It’s best not to refrigerate it since that can cause your fudge to dry out. Also, if you’re stacking them, it’s best to put a layer of wax paper between them.

How long will it be good

Stored properly, your fudge will be good for up to a month.

Can you freeze fudge

Yes, you can freeze this for up to three months. Just take it out of the freezer an hour or two before you want to eat it and you’ll be good to go.
