Step-By-Step Instructions For The Sugar Cookie Fudge Recipe
Start by adding the white chocolate chips to a medium saucepan. Turn the stovetop on medium heat.
Next, pour the sweetened condensed milk into the saucepan.
After the chocolate begins to melt, add the sugar cookie mixture and mix until well blended.
Cook until the chocolate melts, stirring occasionally.
Pour the delicious sugar cookie fudge into the square pan.
I used parchment paper to line the pan because it’s easier to lift out the fudge when it sets up. But, it is optional.
Add the sprinkles to the top of the fudge and let the fudge mixture set up for about one hour in the refrigerator.
I bought some sprinkles on Amazon, but you can use your favorite sprinkles. Red and green sprinkles are fun for Christmas. The link is in the recipe card below.
You can add red, white, and blue festive sprinkles for the Fourth of July or change them out for any holiday.
Or, you can forgo all of the sprinkles and stick to a creamy white chocolate fudge recipe.
Cookie Dough Flavor
The recipe has a delicious cookie dough flavor with the addition of the sugar cookie mixture.
Once the fudge sets up, you can lift it out of the pan and slice it.
I place the fudge in the refrigerator, and it firms up fast. You can also leave it at room temperature, but it might take two to three hours to firm up.
Can You Microwave The Fudge?
Yes, you can also make this Christmas fudge recipe in the microwave.
Simply melt the chocolate chips for about one minute, stir to melt, and microwave in increments of 10 seconds if more time is needed.
Add the rest of the ingredients, pour into the square pan, and add the holiday sprinkles on top.
Is Evaporated Milk Or Condensed Milk Better For Fudge?
Both ingredients make delicious fudge. Evaporated milk is the more traditional ingredient for making fudge. You must cook the fudge that contains evaporated milk.
If using condensed milk, you can microwave the fudge. You will most likely not need sugar if making the fudge with sweetened condensed milk.
