Sweet cookie dough fudge combines nostalgic childhood flavors with classic dessert indulgence. Chocolate chips and creamy texture make this treat irresistible for those craving an easy, delightful confection.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (228g) all-purpose flour, heat-treated
  • 1 cup (200g) Ghirardelli white chocolate chips
  • 1 cup (200g) mini chocolate chips
  • ½ cup (111g) salted butter, softened
  • ½ cup (123g) brown sugar
  • ¼ cup (58g) granulated sugar
  • 1 can (14 oz/193 mL) sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 tbsps milk
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Flour Preparation: Sanitize flour by spreading in a bowl and microwaving for 30-45 seconds, ensuring temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Cool slightly while verifying bacterial elimination.
  2. Butter Mixture: Cream softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Blend in milk and vanilla extract until smooth and uniform.
  3. Dough Integration: Fold heat-treated flour and salt into butter mixture, creating a consistent cookie dough texture without overmixing.
  4. Chocolate Base: Create a double-boiler effect by melting white chocolate chips and sweetened condensed milk in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds to prevent scorching.
  5. Fudge Fusion: Combine melted white chocolate mixture with prepared cookie dough, stirring until silky and homogeneous. Quickly fold in pre-chilled mini chocolate chips, distributing evenly.
  6. Setting Process: Pour fudge mixture into parchment-lined 8×8-inch pan, spreading uniformly with a spatula and smoothing the top for an even surface.
  7. Chilling and Serving: Refrigerate for 2 hours until completely firm. Once solidified, slice into neat squares and store chilled until serving.

Notes

  • Freeze Chocolate Chips: Chilling mini chocolate chips prevents melting and maintains texture during mixing.
  • Sanitize Flour Safely: Microwave flour to eliminate bacteria, ensuring food safety without compromising taste.
  • Prevent Overmixing: Gently fold ingredients to maintain a light, smooth cookie dough texture and avoid toughness.
  • Chill for Perfect Consistency: Refrigerate fudge for 2 hours to achieve a firm, slice-able dessert with ideal mouthfeel.
