Tips & Variations

  • For a nutty twist, stir in chopped almonds or pecans into the fudge before chilling.
  • Use different colored sprinkles to match any holiday or theme.
  • If you don’t have a double boiler, place a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water to melt the ingredients gently.
  • To make the drizzle easier, warm the almond bark slightly in your hands before adding it to the bag to help it flow better.

Storage

Store the fudge in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. To serve, let it come to room temperature for a few minutes for a softer texture. Leftovers can also be frozen for up to one month; thaw in the refrigerator before enjoying.

Ingredients

Scale

Fudge Base

  • 3 cups white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup sugar cookie mix (Betty Crocker recommended)
  • 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup holiday sprinkles (divided)

Topping

  • 34 ounces almond bark or white chocolate

Instructions

  1. Melt Ingredients: In a medium-sized double boiler saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips, sugar cookie mix, sweetened condensed milk, and unsalted butter. Heat over medium heat, stirring continuously until the mixture is fully melted and smooth.
  2. Continue Stirring: Once melted, keep stirring the mixture for an additional 2-3 minutes to ensure all ingredients are well combined and the fudge has a uniform texture.
  3. Add Flavor and Sprinkles: Remove the saucepan from heat but keep it on the double boiler setup to prevent cooling too fast. Stir in the vanilla extract and half of the holiday sprinkles, mixing until evenly distributed.
  4. Prepare Baking Dish: Line a 9×9-inch baking dish with parchment paper and spray it generously with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  5. Transfer Fudge: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the surface evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon.
  6. Add Toppings: Press the remaining holiday sprinkles into the top of the fudge evenly for decoration and a festive touch.
  7. Chill Fudge: Refrigerate the fudge for 2-3 hours, or until fully hardened.
  8. Cut and Prepare Drizzle: Once hardened, lift the fudge out of the baking dish using the parchment paper and transfer it to a hard cutting surface. Cut into desired-sized pieces. Melt the almond bark in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second increments, stirring between each until smooth.
  9. Decorate Fudge: Transfer the melted almond bark to a zip-top bag, cut a small tip off, and drizzle it over the fudge pieces. Alternatively, use a fork to drizzle if preferred.
  10. Serve: Let the drizzle cool and harden completely before serving. Enjoy your festive and delicious Valentine’s Day Sugar Cookie Fudge!
