# Instructions:
01 -
Line a 9×5 loaf pan with parchment paper, letting it overhang on the sides for easy removal. Lightly spray the parchment paper with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white candy melts (or white chocolate chips) in the microwave for 30 seconds. Stir well and heat in additional 15-second increments as needed, stirring well between each interval, until smooth. Stir in 3-4 Tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk, adjusting to your personal taste and texture preference. Spread the white mixture into the prepared pan, using an offset spatula or the back of a spoon to smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Repeat the steps for the orange candy melts: Melt the orange candy melts in the microwave for 30 seconds, stirring well and reheating as needed until smooth. Stir in 3-4 Tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. Spread the orange mixture on top of the white fudge layer. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Repeat the steps for the yellow candy melts: Melt the yellow candy melts in the microwave for 30 seconds, stirring well and reheating as needed until smooth. Stir in 3-4 Tablespoons of sweetened condensed milk. Spread the yellow fudge mixture on top of the orange fudge layer. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Once all the layers are in place, refrigerate the fudge for an additional 2-3 hours or until it is fully set.
06 -
Remove the fudge from the dish, slice, and serve. For a more authentic candy corn look, you can slice the fudge into triangles.
# Notes:
01 -
Add Flavor: Add a drop of clear vanilla extract to each layer for extra flavor.
02 -
Clean Cuts: Use a sharp knife and wipe the knife off after each cut for clean cuts.
03 -
Alternative Pan: You can use an 8-inch baking pan or a small rectangular Pyrex dish instead of a 9×5 loaf pan.
04 -
Incorporate Candy Corn: If you are a candy corn fan, you can fold chopped candy corn into the fudge or place whole pieces of candy corn on top as it starts to set.
05 -
Coloring White Chocolate: If you don’t have candy melts, you can use chopped white chocolate or white chocolate chips and color them with yellow and orange food coloring.
