Ingredients
Scale
Fudge Base
- 18 oz white chocolate chips
- 14 oz sweetened condensed milk
- 1/8 – 1/4 tsp orange gel food coloring
Add-ins
- 2 cups roughly chopped Oreo cookies
- Additional 1/4 cup Oreo cookie pieces (for topping)
Instructions
- Combine ingredients: Place the white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a large microwave-safe bowl, ensuring the bowl is large enough to stir comfortably.
- Microwave heating: Microwave the mixture for 2 minutes to begin melting the chocolate, then stir thoroughly to combine into a smooth mixture.
- Additional melting: If needed, microwave the mixture for an additional 30 seconds to achieve a fully melted and smooth consistency, stirring well after.
- Add coloring: Stir in the orange gel food coloring evenly until the fudge has a consistent festive orange hue.
- Incorporate Oreos: Fold in 2 cups of roughly chopped Oreo cookies gently so they are well distributed throughout the fudge while retaining some texture.
- Prepare pan: Pour the fudge mixture into a 7×11 or 9×9 baking dish and spread it evenly with a spatula.
- Add topping: Press the reserved 1/4 cup of Oreo cookie pieces on top of the fudge to add extra crunch and decorative appeal.
- Set fudge: Allow the fudge to set at room temperature for several hours until firm, or accelerate the process by refrigerating for about one hour before serving.
Notes
- Use a microwave-safe bowl large enough to allow stirring without spilling.
- Adjust the amount of orange gel food coloring to your preferred color intensity.
- Ensure the fudge is completely set before cutting for clean slices.
- This fudge can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- Room temperature setting takes longer but gives a soft texture; refrigeration results in a firmer fudge.
