Goals from Enzo Fernandez, Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and Moises Caicedo sealed a famous victory in Wroclaw for the Blues.
There were joyful scenes on the pitch after the final whistle.
And skipper Reece James sent the travelling Stamford Bridge faithful into a state of ecstasy when he raised the trophy high into the sky.
But the celebrations didn't stop on the pitch, with Enzo Maresca's troops keeping the party going in the dressing room.
The players, understandably, were in the mood for busting a move - particularly Marc Cucurella.
The Spaniard did his best two-step as Caicedo broadcast the celebrations on Instagram Live.
Goal scorers Fernandez and Jackson also cut a rug as several of the Spanish-speaking players belted out Daddy Yankee's 2004 hit 'Gasolina'.
Marc Guiu was seen in the background enjoying one of the beers brought through for the players to enjoy.

The Blues continued their celebrations back at the team hotel, where they had a private room to dance the night away.
Pedro Neto and Filip Jorgensen were well and truly in the mood for dancing, getting downtown to Bruno Mars' 'Uptown Funk'.

There was also some late-night karaoke, with Caicedo treating his team-mates to a rendition of a reggaeton song.
Trevor Chalobah posted footage of Caicedo's sing-song to his Instagram story, with his accompanying caption reading: "Ladies and gentlemen, my CDM."
Noni Madueke also got on the mic, rapping to Meek Mill's 'Dreams and Nightmares'.
It was a late night for Ecuador international Caicedo, who was still going strong at 4am.
The 23-year-old returned to Instagram Live in the early hours of the morning, prompting team-mate Romeo Lavia to tell him to "go to bed".
Several players shared snaps of themselves proudly showing off their winners' medals, including the BANNED Mykhailo Mudryk.
The Ukrainian, who is serving a provisional drugs ban, wore a medal for a snap with Fernandez despite not having played in the competition since last November.
Levi Cowill gave a glimpse at just how many people were in attendance at the celebrations with a photo shouting out the club staff.

Maresca, 45, was nowhere to be seen during the late-night celebrations, which may have resulted in a sore head or two.
The Italian is hoping the Conference League triumph will be the first of many trophies during his reign, saying: "I'm very proud, and very happy.
"I know the fans deserve it, they've waited for a few years for good moments.
"The club has invested a lot of money so they've been waiting too.
"Hopefully, this can be a starting point and we can begin to create something important.
"The target for next season? We're going to try again.
"We'll enjoy it for a week or so, and then start looking ahead."
