Ingredients You'll Need
You only need 3 simple ingredients for this beginner-friendly fudge recipe. The recipe card below has the full list with measurements.
- Oreo cookies. I used regular Oreos, but feel free to use Golden Oreos, Mint Oreos, Double-Stuffed Oreos, Birthday Cake, Caramel Coconut Oreos, or even seasonal flavors like Peppermint Oreos.
- Sweetened condensed milk. This creates the creamy, chewy fudge base and adds just the right amount of sweetness. Don't substitute with evaporated milk; it won't set.
- White chocolate chips. I used all white chocolate chips, but you could replace some of them with dark chocolate chips, semi-sweet chocolate chips, or chopped dark chocolates.
Optional: Add festive sprinkles, candy canes, or a drizzle of melted chocolate for decoration.
How to make it
Even if this is your first time making fudge, follow these step-by-step instructions and you'll have success:
Step 1
Crush the cookies. Place Oreos in a large freezer bag. Crush them into large chunks using a rolling pin or a heavy object, such as the bottom of a jar. You want them to be in chunky, bite-sized pieces.
Step 2
Melt chocolate. In a saucepan over low heat, melt the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk. Stir constantly with a spatula until the mixture is smooth and creamy. (You can also melt in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time.)
Step 3
Fold in cookies. Once the chocolate is smooth and melted, remove from the heat and stir in 1 ½ cups of crushed Oreos, saving ½ cup for topping. Fold gently so the chunks don't break down too much.
Step 4
Spread into pan. Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with foil or parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy lifting. Spray lightly with cooking spray. Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle the remaining Oreos over the top and gently press in.
Step 5
Chill and slice. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water and wiped dry to cut into neat squares.
Variations
- Birthday cake fudge: Use Birthday Cake Oreos and top with rainbow sprinkles.
- Festive: Sprinkle crushed candy canes over the top.
- Extra chocolate: Drizzle melted dark or milk chocolate over top.
- Crunchy: Add chopped nuts or M&Ms.
- Cookies and marshmallows: Fold in mini marshmallows for a Rocky Road variation.
Jeri's Tips
- Always use low heat when melting white chocolate; it scorches easily.
- Line your baking pan with foil or parchment so the fudge lifts out easily.
- Store layers with parchment paper in between to prevent the pieces from sticking.
Storage
Fridge - Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
Freezer - Wrap tightly and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge before serving.
Make-ahead - This fudge is perfect for prepping a few days (or even weeks) in advance of a party.

I made this today. After about 2 hours, it is not even starting to get hard and it tastes terrible
Jeri Walker says
Hi Vickie. I'm sorry this fudge didn't work out for you. This fudge does set once chilled, so when it stays soft and the flavor is off, it's usually due to one of a few things that can happen with white chocolate. White chocolate is very sensitive to heat. If it gets overheated (especially in the microwave or over medium heat), it can seize or separate, which prevents the fudge from setting properly and can leave an unpleasant flavor. Low heat and frequent stirring are key. It also needs full chilling time in the refrigerator, not at room temperature.
