Two Ingredient Butterbeer Fudge- Harry Potter Recipe (2024)

FAQs

What is butterbeer fudge made of? ›

What is this? My Universal Studios copycat Butterbeer Fudge recipe has two layers of fudge. The bottom is butterscotch with a hint of rum (aka rum extract..not actual rum) and the top layer is a delicious white chocolate fudge.

A simple brown sugar and butter syrup gets topped with cream soda and a dollop of cream in this wildly popular drink. Next time you are having a Harry Potter movie marathon, book club meeting, or even a Halloween party, pull out all the stops with this sweet drink that even Harry, Ron, and Hermione would approve of.

Butterbeer Fudge

This treat has two layers that taste like shortbread and butterscotch, which combined make Butterbeer fudgy goodness. It's the perfect amount of sweetness that I enjoyed until the very last bite.

It's not actual beer, but a dessert drink similar to a milkshake. The Butterbeer you get at Universal Orlando is a very sweet cream soda and butterscotch tasting drink. It comes in a frozen version or regular topped with a tasty sweet foam.

In Bon Appetit's January 2002 issue, author J.K. Rowling was asked what butterbeer tastes like, and she said: "I made it up. I imagine it to taste a little bit like less sickly butterscotch." The version sold at The Wizarding World was tasted and approved by Rowling herself.

The Three Broomsticks (in Hogsmeade) and The Leaky Cauldron (in Diagon Alley): Cold Butterbeer. Frozen Butterbeer. Hot Butterbeer.

This is a reality. But its origin dates back much further than J.K. Rowling's films. Butterbeer, or “Buttered beere” as it was described in 1594, has existed for many centuries. At the time of the Tudors, beer was already a typical and commonly consumed drink.

↑ In the film version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, however, Hermione Granger appears to act slightly tipsy after a visit to the Three Broomsticks Inn where she was shown drinking some; this can be seen just before the discovery of Katie Bell.

The Universal Studios Orlando's butterbeer recipe is still top secret, but according to the books, it is made out of butterscotch, sugar, and water.

Is cold or frozen Butterbeer better? ›

If this is your first Butterbeer, I'd recommend the cold version. As a Harry Potter fan, this drink comes the closest to how I imagined it. It can be served in a regular cup or a souvenir tankard.
