Indulge in the delightful world of sweets with our irresistible cookies and cream fudge. This recipe merges the classic charm of Oreo cookies with the velvety smoothness of white chocolate, creating a sensational treat that’s both easy to make and impossible to resist.
Cookies and Cream Fudge Ingredients
White chocolate chips bring a velvety richness to the fudge, while condensed milk contributes essential luscious creaminess.
Oreo cookie pieces offer delightful crunch and a classic cookie flavor burst, and a pinch of salt perfectly balances the fudge’s sweetness.
You’ll need:
- 3 cups of good-quality white chocolate chips
- 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 2½ cups of Oreo cookie pieces, divided into 2 cups and ½ cup (about 25 cookies)
- Pinch of salt
Substitutions and Additions
WHITE CHOCOLATE CHIPS: Feel free to experiment with different chocolate varieties, like dark or milk chocolate, for a unique twist.
SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK: For a dairy-free option, swap condensed coconut milk. Keep in mind that this may alter the flavor slightly.
OREO COOKIE PIECES: Substitute with any favorite cookie you choose for a personalized touch. Alternatively, use flavored Oreos to infuse a creative twist.
SALT: If you’re a fan of sweet-salty contrasts, opt for sea salt for a more pronounced flavor profile.
How To Make This Cookies and Cream Fudge Recipe
Creating this delectable cookies and cream white chocolate fudge is a breeze. Let’s dive into the simple steps:
STEP ONE: Line an 8×8 inch square pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, making sure the parchment paper or foil goes up all four sides of the baking dish. Set aside.
OUR RECIPE DEVELOPER SAYS
The parchment paper or foil makes cleaning up a snap and makes it much easier to remove the yummy fudge from your pan when it’s time to slice into squares.
STEP TWO: Combine chocolate chips and condensed milk in a medium, heavy-based saucepan over medium-low heat.
Gently stir until the chocolate melts and the fudge mixture is well combined and uniform.
STEP THREE: Remove from the heat and fold in two cups of Oreo cookie pieces and a pinch of salt.
STEP FOUR: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it into an even layer with a rubber spatula or the back of a spoon.
STEP FIVE: Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of Oreo pieces over top of the fudge and gently press them into the surface.
STEP SIX: Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for at least one hour before transferring the fudge to the refrigerator for at least two hours or until set.
PRO TIP:
Score the top of the fudge with a sharp knife before chilling to make cutting easier.
STEP SEVEN: Once set, remove the fudge from the pan and cut it into squares with a sharp knife.
PRO TIP:
Use an extra sharp knife dipped in water between slices to help create smooth, clean cuts in this simple cookies and cream fudge.
