Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 14 oz (1 can) sweetened condensed milk
- 3 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
Add-ins
- 1 cup crushed sugar cookies (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup festive sprinkles (optional)
Decorations (optional)
- Additional sprinkles
- Crushed sugar cookie crumbs
Instructions
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal of the fudge later.
- Melt the White Chocolate and Condensed Milk: In a medium saucepan, combine the sweetened condensed milk and white chocolate chips. Warm over low heat, stirring constantly until the chocolate chips are fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Add Extracts: Remove the pan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and almond extract (if using) to enhance the flavor.
- Mix in Cookies and Sprinkles: Gently fold in the crushed sugar cookies and 1/2 cup of festive sprinkles, ensuring even distribution throughout the fudge mixture.
- Pour and Smooth: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Sprinkle additional sprinkles and crushed cookie crumbs on top if desired for a decorative finish.
- Chill to Set: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until completely firm and set.
- Cut and Serve: Use the parchment overhang to lift the fudge out of the pan. Cut into 1-inch squares and serve or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Notes
- For best texture, use high-quality white chocolate chips.
- Almond extract is optional but adds a lovely complementary flavor to the vanilla.
- Make sure to crush the sugar cookies into small pieces but not powdered for texture contrast.
- Store the fudge refrigerated to maintain firmness and freshness, ideally within 1 week.
- You can substitute festive sprinkles with chopped nuts or dried fruit for variation.
