Cookie Dough Fudge raw ingredients that is labeled

You’ll need:

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, divided
½ cup salted sweet cream butter, softened
⅓ cup light brown sugar, packed
¼ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1½ cups white chocolate chips

SUBSTITUTIONS AND ADDITIONS

WHITE CHOCOLATE: It is important to use a good quality white chocolate in this simple recipe as it makes a big difference in how the chocolate melts and mixes with the sweetened condensed milk. We prefer Ghirardelli white baking chips.

STEP ONE: Line an 8×8-inch square pan with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray. Set it aside.

OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS

The parchment paper allows you to easily remove this perfect fudge from the square pan to slice.

STEP TWO: In a small heat-safe bowl, add the all-purpose flour. Microwave for 1 minute, set it aside, and allow the flour to cool completely. Once the flour is completely cooled, sift the flour to remove any small clumps.

PRO TIP:

Since this is an edible cookie dough recipe, the raw flour needs to be microwaved to make certain to kill any pathogens. After the flour completely cools, the flour may need to be sifted because sometimes when either heating the flour in the microwave or the oven, small clumps form due to the moisture.

STEP THREE: Add 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to a Ziploc bag. Place the chocolate chips in the freezer while making the rest of the recipe.

PRO TIP:

Freezing the chocolate chips before adding them to the cookie dough mixture and then the melted white chocolate mixture keeps the chocolate from melting and coloring the fudge a streaky brown.

STEP FOUR: Using a medium bowl and a hand mixer at medium speed, cream the butter, granulated sugar, light brown sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and salt for 1½ to 2 minutes.

STEP FIVE: Reduce the mixer speed to low, add in the flour and mix just until the ingredients are well incorporated. Set it aside.

STEP SIX: In a medium-sized microwave-safe bowl, heat the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in the microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring well after each 30 seconds, until the chips are completely melted and smooth.

STEP SEVEN: Remove the Ziploc bag containing the 1 cup of chocolate chips from the freezer. Using a wooden spoon, stir the frozen chips into the butter and flour mixture.

STEP EIGHT: Spoon the melted white chocolate mixture into the cookie dough. Stir just until all ingredients are combined.

STEP NINE: Spoon the cookie dough fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish.

STEP TEN: Evenly sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough fudge. Very gently press the chips into the top of the fudge. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to overnight.

PRO TIP:

To make it easier to cut later, you can lightly score the top of the fudge with a sharp knife before chilling.
