Every time we go to Disneyland the hubby insists we stop by and pick up some fudge on Main Street. It’s his absolute favorite treat to get for himself and something I’ve never attempted to make for him.
I decided to change that this week.
I saw that National Fudge Day was on the 16th (Father’s Day) and thought it would be the perfect time to try a new fudge recipe for a treat for the hubby as an early Father’s Day gift knowing he’d love it. I wasn’t sure which flavor to try but know you can’t go wrong with Cookies and Cream, so I decided to make some Cookies and Cream Fudge.
I’m happy to report that was it was super simple to make and turned out FABULOUS!! The hubby was so excited to try it out and gave the fudge two BIG thumbs up. If I’m going to be honest, I was SUPER thrilled that it tastes just as good as the confectionery – REALLY! 🙂
I don’t know why I was hesitant to try making fudge. This recipe was simple, quick and turned out great.
It comes from Food Fanatic. I wanted to adapt the recipe but since it was my first time making fudge I wanted to make it came out right. The only difference was I sprinkled some more oreos on top, but that’s it. The recipe is great just as it is!
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ cup butter
- 2½ cups white chocolate chips
- 1 can marshmallow fluff (7 ounces)
- 20 oreos crushed
- In a bowl add white chocolate chips and marshmallow fluff. Set aside.
- In a saucepan melt sugar, heavy cream, salt and butter over medium heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
- Pour butter mixture into the bowl with the white chips and marshmallow fluff. Beat with a mixer until chips have melted and all is smooth.
- Fold in crushed Oreos and pour into a 9x9 pan lined with parchment paper. Sprinkle with a few crushed Oreos.
- Refrigerate for 4-6 hours. Cut into small squares and trim edges if desired. ENJOY!
If you like Cookies and Cream and fudge, this is the recipe to try. 🙂

I Love Oreos! =)
Your recipe sounds delicious!
pinning to my dessert board.
That sounds amazing. I am always scared of making fudge. I worry it just won’t turn out as awesome as my grandmas. I’ll have to try this because I love cookies and cream.

I’ve been following your posts and have since tried this fudge recipe and the snickerdoodle cookie recipe. Loved both – turned out great! Love your posts! 🙂
My husband loves oreos so I think I’ll make this to surprise him! And you were probably scared of fudge because true fudge (that doesn’t use chips or marshmallows) is very tricky to make and takes a long time. These recipes that use chocolate chips and marshmallows are kind of cheater fudge because they don’t have the sugar crystal issues that true fudge has and they are almost impossible to screw up!
I made this and it was delicious! I usually don’t like chocolate chip and marshmallow fudge recipes, but this was really creamy but still firm enough that it was easy to cut. It tasted just like a cookies ‘n cream candy bar. When I make it next time I will cut out a little bit of that sugar though. At least 1/4 Cup because it was just a little too sweet for me. My husband took a plate of this fudge to work and it was all gone in less than an hour. It really is so easy and very good. I think I will make it for neighbors this Christmas with the oreos that have the red filling!
Great idea for Christmas, Stasia!! I want to do a peppermint Oreo Fudge recipe for Christmas. 🙂
And so glad you guys liked it as well as those at your hubby’s work. Thanks for stopping by!
Found this yummy recipe yesterday (the fudge got rave reviews at our Labor Day picnic) and found you today when I searched for “I’m a Mormon” badges for my blog! Just wanted to connect and say thanks! Hugs!

Hi Karin! Thank you so much for stopping by. I’m so glad the fudge as a hit. It’s our fav too, and we’ll probably be making it again this week. Hope you can come back again for more inspiration. XO
Do you know what the temperature of the mixture is after 5 minutes? I like to go by temp not time. Really want to try this recipe. Thanks!
Katie recently posted..Link Party Palooza
Hi Katie. Unfortunately, I’ve never taken the temperature but will try to next time I make it. 🙂
how much does this recipe yeild?
It was a 9×9 pan. 🙂
I’m wondering does it have to stay cold? Can I put it in a care package and mail overseas?
Hi, Stephanie! Unfortunately, I have never mailed this to anyone. I have sent it with family on plane rides and such but when I make it at home I keep it refrigerated. :/
Hello! I was so pleased to find your recipe! It sounds amazing and I really like that it uses heavy cream as opposed to evaporated milk (as many other recipes I found do). I was just wondering how long this fudge keeps if stored in the refridgerator. If I make it this week, will it keep through Chirstmas Eve?
Thanks!
Kristen 🙂
Hi Kristen! I’m not exactly sure because our fudge never lasts that long at our house, but I think normally it lasts just a few days up to a week in the fridge. I would try to make it closer to Christmas. 😉
Love this recipe! I found it on Pinterest and can’t wait to make it again. I shared the recipe on my blog as well at http://www.tastequests.com as well. I hope that is okay! 🙂
love your recipies but you need to put heat to what temp not to just boiling need to know so its not sugary
Everyone’s stove is different, but I did say to melt on medium heat. That is when my mixture started to boil. 😉
