Easy Oreo Fudge

This three-ingredient Oreo fudge turns basic components into a rich dessert that'll win over chocolate fans everywhere. The mix of creamy white chocolate with bits of crunchy Oreos creates such an amazing texture—it always vanishes fast when I bring it to parties.

I whipped this up first when my kid needed something quick for a school fundraiser. Every piece sold in minutes, and now my family bugs me to make it for all our get-togethers.

Ingredients

• White chocolate: 14 ounces grab premium chips or baking bars for better melting
• Sweetened condensed milk: 14 ounces gives that perfect fudgy texture and sweetness without any complicated cooking steps
• Oreo cookies: 28 pieces these familiar sandwich cookies add both flavor contrast and wonderful chunky bits throughout

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prepare the Base:

Put white chocolate and sweetened condensed milk together in a microwave-safe bowl. Zap it for 1 minute, then give it a good stir though it won't be fully melted yet. Keep heating in 15-second bursts, stirring between each, until it's all smooth. Don't overdo the heat or your chocolate might turn grainy and ruin the batch.

Crush the Cookies:

Toss your Oreos in a tough ziplock and smash them with a rolling pin or heavy spoon. You'll want different-sized pieces—some crumbs, some chunks—for the best texture. I always leave a few bigger bits for nice cookie surprises when you bite in.

Combine Everything:

Dump your crushed Oreos into the melted chocolate mix. Fold them in gently with a spatula until they're spread throughout. The warmth will soften some cookie pieces, which makes that perfect fudge feel once it sets up.

Set the Fudge:

Put parchment in an 8-inch square pan, leaving extra hanging over the sides for easy lifting later. Pour your Oreo mixture in and spread it out to fill the corners. Tap the pan on your counter a few times to pop any air bubbles.

Chill and Serve:

Stick it in the fridge for at least 8 hours, but overnight works better. When it's firm, grab those parchment edges to pull the whole thing out. Cut into squares with a sharp knife—run it under hot water and wipe between cuts for the cleanest edges.

Pin it

I once grabbed double stuffed Oreos by mistake when making this fudge. That lucky error turned into our family favorite version now—the extra cream filling makes gorgeous swirls through the white chocolate base. Sometimes kitchen mistakes lead to the tastiest discoveries!

Storage and Shelf Life

This Oreo fudge stays fresh in the fridge for up to two weeks if you keep it in a sealed container with parchment between layers so they don't stick together. You can freeze it for up to three months too. I like to cut it into squares first, then wrap each piece in plastic before putting them in a freezer bag. That way you can grab just one or two when a sweet craving hits.

Tasty Variations

The basic recipe works great as is, but you can switch things up by trying different Oreo flavors or adding extra touches. Mint Oreos make a refreshing twist, or try golden Oreos with white chocolate for a double vanilla treat. During holidays, I throw in some festive sprinkles or a tiny bit of food coloring to match the season. Coffee fans might enjoy adding a teaspoon of espresso powder to the melted chocolate—it creates a yummy mocha flavor that goes really well with the cookies.

Gift Giving Ideas

This fudge makes such a nice homemade gift and looks way fancier than the effort it takes. For the holidays, I cut it into neat squares and put them in colorful mini cupcake papers before arranging them in a pretty tin or box. Add a ribbon and a little note about how to store them. Teachers, neighbors and coworkers always get excited to receive these treats, especially when they're packaged with a personal touch.
