Oreo fudge is the perfect tasty treat to make for almost any occasion. This easy-to-make, 4-ingredient recipe calls for cream cheese, confectionary sugar, white chocolate chips, and, of course, Oreos!
(my personal fav)! Not only does this homemade fudge taste amazing and look festive, but it is also SO EASY to make because it requires no baking, stove top, or candy thermometer! (Yay for simple recipes) For me, that checks all the boxes for a perfect holiday treat.
Add this to a dessert board along with these delicious caramelized pecans and this unbelievable butter toffee! I promise all your friends will be asking you for the recipes!
Candy Cane Oreo Fudge
This simple recipe has been a family tradition for Christmas at our home since my children were small! The kids love to eat it on its own, or to mix it up with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a knock-off version of a cookies and cream Blizzard!
The ultimate cookies and cream flavor, this oreo fudge is perfect to make all year long, or add some crushed candy cane to the top and use it as a food gift during the holiday season!!
Additional Flavor Options
The sky is the limit when it comes to adding additional flavors to this delicious cream fudge. Any flavor combination that you think will taste good with creamy white chocolate and Oreos will do. I always recommend trying the recipe as written for the first time but then coming back and making it again by exploring other flavor options. Here are a few options to try, simply sprinkle these on top or mix them into the fudge mixture.
- Skor bar chunks or chunks of butter toffee.
- Add Smarties or M&M’s.
- Strawberry Jam or any other flavored jam.
- Caramel or Chocolate syrup
- Marshmallows
- Candied pecans, almonds, or other nuts
- Peanut Butter
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips, dark chocolate chips or milk chocolate chips
How to Make Oreo Fudge
These simple ingredients combined will make the most delicious no bake dessert. Let’s dive into how to make Oreo fudge.
Materials
- Baking tray or 9″ baking pan.
- Mixer, hand mixer, or wooden spoon.
- Large mixing bowl
- Parchment paper
- Sharp Knife
9″, $34
Long-Handled Wooden Spoons (My FAV)
12″, $20
12″, $82
Ingredients
- 1 (8 ounces) package of cream cheese, room temperature
- 4 cups Confectionaries Powdered or Icing sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 15 ounces white chocolate or white chocolate chips, chopped or chips
- Oreo cookies, broken into chunks
Optional Ingredients
- Ground candy cane dust and chunks
- Skor bar pieces or butter toffee
- Peanut Butter
- Candied Pecans
- Smarties or M&M’s
Directions
- Line a baking dish or pan with parchment paper. I like the thickness of the fudge from a 9″ pan. Set the prepared pan aside.
- Begin by combining your cream cheese and icing sugar in a large bowl and mixing it until it becomes smooth.
- In a separate glass bowl, melt white chocolate chips by using the microwave for 1.5 minutes on high or placing the glass bowl over a boiling pot of water until the chocolate is melted.
- Combine the chocolate in with the icing sugar and cream cheese mixture.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix well.
- Fold the chunks of Oreo cookies into the mixture but be sure to save enough for the top of the fudge. Make sure to not over mix during this step. You don’t want to lose the bright white of the chocolate mixture.
- Spread the mixture into the parchment-lined, prepared baking pan and add the remaining Oreos on top of the fudge.
- Sprinkle candy cane dust and chunks or other toppings on the top if desired, then pop the baking sheet into the freezer for 1 hour or fridge for 4 hours.
- Cut into squares or small pieces (or large pieces, ha!) using a sharp knife and serve. YUM!!
Tips and Tricks for Making Oreo Fudge
- Make sure to not over-mix the oreo cookies into the chocolate mixture. This will cause it to lose its bright white appearance.
- If you are adding candy canes to the top, crush them inside a small paper or plastic bag! This way you don’t end up with a mess of candy canes everywhere.
Storing Oreo Fudge
Oreo fudge can be left at room temperature for an evening or event, however, it will keep for up to a week in an air-tight container in the refrigerator. You can also freeze oreo fudge in the freezer in an airtight container or appropriate ziplock bag for up to three months.
Oreo fudge can be made with the three simple ingredients used to make traditional fudge which are chocolate, sweetened condensed milk, and Oreos. This recipe uses cream cheese which gives a slightly creamy texture and flavor to the fudge. It is a delicious combination of crunchy cookies and creamy chocolate.
The temperature of the ingredients plays a key role when making fudge. For this recipe, the cream cheese needs to be at room temperature so that it can be completely mixed into the icing sugar to make a smooth consistency and not have any clumps. Once it is refrigerated, it will become smooth and firm but still be easily cut through.
Be sure to let me know if you try this recipe and if you love it as much as we do! Don’t forget to Pin it for later to use year after year.
