Fudge is one of my favorite recipes to make and share. My husband and son love anything flavored like sugar cookies, so I wanted to create something special for them beyond regular old chocolate fudge. This creamy recipe comes together in less than 5 minutes. Best of all, it’s practically effortless to make and decorate.

If you enjoy making fudge as much as I do, I’m willing to bet you’ll also love my Reese’s Fudge recipe. And for all you cookie lovers, you won’t want to miss the mouthwatering combination of oatmeal cookies and fudge in my Oatmeal Fudge Bars.

  • Made with white chocolate, this creamy and sweet fudge melts in your mouth and is a delight to eat.
  • It’s easy to switch up the decorations. You can color it for a specific holiday, birthday theme, or any special occasion.

What You’ll Need

  • Sugar Cookie Mix – Pre-packaged sugar cookie mix brings that classic cookie flavor to the recipe in an easy way.  
  • White Chocolate Chips – Creamy white chocolate helps create the base of this white fudge. 
  • Butter – Salted butter adds extra richness and flavor to this recipe. 
  • Sweetened Condensed Milk – Makes the fudge extra creamy and sweet.
  • Vanilla Extract – Adds extra warm vanilla flavor. 
  • Sprinkles – Adds color to this creamy white fudge. Use your favorite sprinkles that reflect the occasion or season.

How To Make Sugar Cookie Fudge

  • Warm the milk and sugar on the stove. In a medium saucepan, mix the sweetened condensed milk and sugar cookie mix until well combined. Warm the mixture over medium heat. 
  • Add the white chocolate and butter to the mixture. Add the white chocolate and butter to the pot, stirring until completely smooth and melted.
  • Transfer to the pan and decorate. Pour the warm mixture into the prepared pan and top immediately with sprinkles. Pat the sprinkles gently so they’ll stick. 
  • Let it set, then serve. Allow the fudge to set for about 4 hours, then slice and serve.

Recipe Tips & Variations

  • Don’t heat the sugar and milk mixture until it’s combined. If you try to heat this mixture as you’re mixing it, you may ruin the consistency of the fudge or burn it.
  • Stir constantly while warming the fudge. To avoid burning it, stir the fudge mixture constantly with a heatproof rubber spatula or wooden spoon as it’s warming up.
  • Make it a brightly colored or pastel fudge. Mix a couple of drops of food coloring into the warm fudge mixture before pouring it into your pan. This is great for special occasions– think green for St. Patrick’s Day, pink or red for Valentine’s Day, or your child’s favorite color for a birthday party. 
  • Try a minty version of this fudge. Make white peppermint fudge by using peppermint extract in place of vanilla. Then decorate with crushed candy canes or red and white sprinkles. 
  • Get creative with the toppings. Aside from holiday-specific sprinkles, consider adding different toppings. You could try chopped nuts or candies, freeze-dried strawberry crumbles, or mini chocolate chips for starters.
Can I Use Evaporated Milk Instead?

Do not use evaporated milk in this recipe. It’s important to use sweetened condensed milk to get the right taste and texture.

Can You Speed Up The Setting Time Of The Fudge?

If you can’t wait four hours for the fudge to set at room temperature, you can place it in the refrigerator instead. This should cut the setting time down by about half!

How To Store Fudge

  • Refrigerate – Store the finished fudge in an airtight container in the fridge. If you’re cutting it before storing it, it can help to put waxed paper between any stacked layers. It will last about one week. 
  • Freeze – Freeze the finished fudge wrapped in plastic or waxed paper inside an airtight container. It will last at least 3 months.

After this fudge is made, does it need to be refrigerated? Interested in making this for a Christmas cookie party, where we will combine all our cookies and put them in tins for other family/friends.

Yes, read the How To Store Fudge section of the post for the tips. It is best served room temperature, but long term storage is in the fridge
