Festive, creamy chocolate fudge pops shaped like Christmas trees and decorated with colorful sprinkles—perfect for holiday parties, gifting, and family fun. No baking required and ready in under 30 minutes plus chill time.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (12 oz) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup green candy melts OR white chocolate chips + green food coloring
  • Assorted holiday sprinkles (stars, pearls, nonpareils)
  • Mini pretzel sticks or popsicle sticks
  • Edible gold dust or shimmer sugar (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth and melted (about 2–3 minutes). Alternatively, melt on the stovetop over low heat, stirring constantly.
  2. Add sea salt and vanilla extract to the warm fudge base. Stir until fully combined and taste to adjust salt or vanilla if needed.
  3. Spoon the fudge mixture into silicone Christmas tree molds, filling each cavity about 3/4 full. Tap the mold to level and remove air bubbles.
  4. Insert a popsicle stick or pretzel rod into the base of each tree, anchoring it in the fudge.
  5. Melt green candy melts (or white chocolate chips with green food coloring) in a microwave-safe bowl. Transfer to a zip-top bag, snip the corner, and drizzle over each fudge pop to create tree branches and garland effects.
  6. While the green layer is soft, decorate with holiday sprinkles, edible pearls, and gold dust. Press a star-shaped sprinkle at the top of each tree.
  7. Place the filled molds on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 2–3 hours, or until firm. For faster setting, freeze for 30–40 minutes.
  8. Gently unmold each fudge tree. If using a pan, lift out with parchment and slice into triangle shapes. Wipe off any extra sprinkles or chocolate drips for a neat finish.

Notes

Use high-quality chocolate chips for best texture. Don’t overheat chocolate to avoid graininess. Chill fully before unmolding for clean shapes. For vegan pops, use dairy-free chocolate and coconut condensed milk. Pops freeze well for up to 2 months. Decorate quickly while the green layer is soft for best sprinkle adhesion.
