Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract (optional)
- 1/2 cup sugar cookie crumbs (from baked cookies)
Topping
- Sprinkles, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the Baking Dish: Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, making sure to leave an overhang on the sides for easy removal of the fudge later.
- Melt Ingredients: In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Stir constantly until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined.
- Add Flavorings and Cookie Crumbs: Remove the saucepan from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract, almond extract if using, and the sugar cookie crumbs, mixing thoroughly to distribute evenly.
- Transfer to Dish: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a smooth surface.
- Add Sprinkles: Generously sprinkle the top with your choice of sprinkles, gently pressing them into the fudge so they adhere.
- Chill the Fudge: Place the baking dish in the refrigerator and chill for 2 to 3 hours, or until the fudge is firm and set.
- Cut and Serve: Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the fudge out of the dish. Cut into 16 equal squares and serve.
Notes
- For best results, use high-quality white chocolate chips to ensure smooth texture and rich flavor.
- The almond extract is optional but adds a lovely depth; omit if you prefer a pure vanilla flavor.
- Use freshly baked sugar cookies to make the crumbs for maximum taste; store-bought sugar cookie crumbs can be used if pressed for time.
- Store fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Allow fudge to come to room temperature briefly before serving for a softer texture.
