396g of sweetened condensed milk 

225g white chocolate chips

Directions

Crush your mini eggs by popping them into a bag and taking a rolling pin. This is a great way to ease that Monday anger! Next, line a 9x9 tin with parchment paper. 

Combine the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate in a bowl and microwave for 2-3 minutes. Make sure you don't overcook the white chocolate. Stir to combine fully. Next, add in the vanilla and almond and add your food colouring. Technically, you can choose any colour you'd like or even get all rainbow and creative, but we thought pastel pink was cute. Stir in the mini eggs and pour into the tin. Let this set for a few hours in the fridge. 

As an optional step, you can reserve some of the crushes eggs and press it into the top of the fudge immediately after pouring or use sprinkles for extra unicorn rainbow goodness! Better yet, use small Gookie Dough balls of funfetti cake batter to pop on top!
