Serves: 12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 package Oreo cookies
- 1 cup white chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup crushed candy canes
Instructions
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing excess paper to hang over the sides for easy removal later.
- Crush Oreo cookies into small, chunky pieces using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the mixture is completely smooth and melted.
- Gently fold the crushed Oreo cookies into the melted white chocolate mixture, ensuring even distribution of cookie pieces.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Sprinkle crushed candy canes over the top of the fudge, pressing lightly to ensure they adhere to the surface.
- Refrigerate the fudge for at least 2 hours or until completely set and firm.
- Using the overhanging parchment paper, lift the fudge out of the pan and cut into 12 equal squares.
- Serve chilled and store any remaining fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality white chocolate chips for the smoothest, most luxurious texture.
- When microwaving the chocolate and condensed milk, stir carefully and frequently to prevent burning.
- For extra-fine candy cane pieces, use a food processor or place them in a sealed bag and crush with a rolling pin.
- Make sure to line your pan with parchment paper for easy removal and clean cutting.
- Allow the fudge to set completely in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours for the perfect firm texture.
- For a more festive look, reserve some extra candy cane pieces to sprinkle on top just before serving.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness and prevent the fudge from absorbing other refrigerator odors.
