I made this Slow Cooker Kinder Fudge for my niece’s birthday party, and it was an instant hit! The best part? It’s so easy to make—just toss everything in the slow cooker and let it do its magic. You don’t need any fancy skills or tools, and the results are incredible.

Recipe Ingredients
- White Chocolate: This is the base of your fudge, and it gives that sweet, creamy flavor. You can use white chocolate bars or chips, whatever you have on hand!
- Milk Chocolate: Adds a bit of depth to the sweetness of the white chocolate. You can substitute with semi-sweet chocolate if you prefer a slightly less sweet fudge.
- Condensed Milk: This helps bind everything together and gives the fudge a rich, smooth texture. It’s what makes fudge so creamy and indulgent.
- Vanilla Extract: A little bit of vanilla goes a long way in enhancing the flavors of both the white and milk chocolate. You can also try almond extract for a different flavor profile!
- Kinder Bueno: The star of the show! Broken into pieces and folded into the fudge, these hazelnut and wafer bars add texture and a delicious twist. Feel free to substitute with other chocolate bars if you’re feeling adventurous.
Step-by-Step Directions
Step One – Break the chocolate into pieces and add to the slow cooker along with the condensed milk and vanilla. Stir everything together until well mixed.
Step Two – Set the slow cooker on high and cook for 40 minutes, leaving the lid off. Stir every 10 minutes to ensure the chocolate melts smoothly and doesn’t stick to the sides.
Step Three – Once the mixture is thick and fully melted, fold in most of the broken Kinder Bueno pieces, saving a few for topping later.
Step Four – Pour the fudge into a lined baking tin and top with the remaining Kinder Bueno pieces. Let it set in the fridge, preferably overnight, for the best texture.
How to serve
- I love enjoying this Kinder fudge after dinner with a warm cup of coffee or tea. It’s the perfect sweet bite when you’re craving something rich and creamy. Sometimes, I even pair it with hot chocolate for an extra treat on chilly nights.
- When I have friends over, I like to serve it in small squares on a dessert platter with fresh fruit like strawberries or apple slices. The mix of the creamy fudge with the fresh fruit is always a hit!
- If you’re feeling creative, crumble a bit of the fudge over some vanilla ice cream for an easy but delicious dessert. It’s simple, but everyone always asks for seconds!
Recipe FAQs and Variations
Can I use dark chocolate instead of milk chocolate?
Yes! If you prefer a richer, less sweet fudge, you can swap the milk chocolate for dark chocolate. Just keep in mind that it will change the overall flavor slightly, giving it a deeper cocoa taste.
How should I store leftover fudge?
Keep your fudge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. For long-term storage, you can also freeze it. Just wrap the fudge in parchment paper and place it in a freezer-safe bag for up to 3 months.
Can I use other chocolate bars instead of Kinder Bueno?
Definitely! Feel free to get creative with your favorite chocolate bars. You can substitute Kinder Bueno with other hazelnut chocolates, peanut butter cups, or even crumbled cookies for a different twist.
Is there a way to make this fudge dairy-free?
Yes, you can try using dairy-free chocolate and condensed coconut milk instead of regular sweetened condensed milk. It’ll still be delicious, just with a slightly different texture and flavor!

Ingredients
1 can (397 ml) sweetened condensed milk
450 g white chocolate (use bars or sweet chocolate chips)
150 g milk chocolate (use bars or sweet milk chocolate chips)
2 tablespoons vanilla extract
6 packs of Kinder Bueno (12 bars total), broken into pieces
Directions
- Break the white and milk chocolate into small pieces and add them to your slow cooker. Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract, stirring gently to combine the ingredients.
- Turn the slow cooker on to high and cook the mixture for about 40 minutes. Leave the lid off and stir every 10 minutes to ensure the chocolate melts evenly and doesn’t stick.
- Once the mixture is fully melted, thick, and smooth, gently fold in most of the Kinder Bueno pieces. Keep a handful of pieces aside for adding to the top later.
- Line a baking tin with parchment paper or use a silicone tray. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared tin and smooth out the top. Scatter the remaining Kinder Bueno pieces over the fudge.
- Place the tin in the fridge to set. For best results, allow the fudge to chill for at least 4 hours, but overnight is ideal for a firmer texture. Once set, cut into squares and enjoy!
