If you love Piña Coladas, this Piña Colada Fudge is going to be your new obsession! It’s creamy, tropical, and has the perfect mix of sweet pineapple, coconut, and white chocolate. Every bite melts in your mouth and makes you feel like you’re on vacation.

No baking, no stress—just mix, chill, and enjoy!

Let’s get into it!

What You’ll Need

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter (melted)
  • ½ cup crushed pineapple (drained well)
  • ½ cup shredded coconut (plus more for topping)
  • 1 tsp coconut extract
  • 1 tsp rum extract (optional, for that tropical kick)
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • Optional topping: Toasted coconut, extra pineapple bits, or a drizzle of white chocolate

Pro Tips

  1. Drain the pineapple well! Too much liquid can make the fudge too soft.
  2. Toast the coconut. It adds an extra layer of flavor and a little crunch.
  3. Let it set completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting for the perfect texture.
  4. Line your pan with parchment paper. It makes lifting and cutting the fudge so much easier.
  5. Want a boozy kick? Add 1 tbsp coconut rum instead of rum extract (just keep it away from the kids!).

Tools You’ll Need

  • Medium saucepan
  • Spatula
  • 8×8-inch baking dish
  • Parchment paper
  • Knife for cutting

Substitutions & Variations

  • Dairy-free option: Use dairy-free white chocolate and coconut condensed milk.
  • Extra pineapple flavor: Stir in ½ tsp pineapple extract for a fruitier punch.
  • Crunchy texture: Add chopped macadamia nuts for a little bite.
  • Sweeter version: Drizzle caramel or white chocolate on top before chilling.
