Two of my favorite things in a single dessert: cookies & cream and fudge! This whipping cream fudge is super easy to make and a great treat to bring to holiday parties!
You now officially have the recipe for the BEST FUDGE EVER. Can sinful and heavenly be used in the same sentence? You absolutely when talking about whipping cream fudge and then throwing cookies and cream into the mix! You must put this recipe on your holiday baking list. Except, please don’t bake it and leave me a nasty comment because it turned into an inedible brick of sugar.
ONTO THE RECIPE!
How To Make Whipping Cream Fudge
Step 1
Line an 8×8-inch pan with aluminum foil, making sure there is overhang on at least two sides. Smooth out the wrinkles on the bottoms and sides with your hands. Coat the foil generously with PAM Cooking Spray. Set the pan aside.
One of the most enjoyable parts of making this recipe was choosing a festive package of Oreo cookies (15.25 oz.). Have you seen the plethora of filling options that are available these days? I chose the Birthday Cake variety and it was a solid choice. Any of them will work well, I am confident.
Step 2
Coarsely chop the entire package and set the irresistable pieces of cookie aside.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine:
1 stick salted butter
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup heavy whipping cream
Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, stirring so the mixture is smooth and does not burn. Boil for 4 minutes, stirring constantly, and remove the pan from the heat.
Step 4
Add:
7-oz. container marshmallow creme
11-oz. bag white chocolate chips
1 teaspoon almond extract
Stir until the mixture is smooth.
Fold in 2/3 of the chopped cookies (you will need the other 1/3 in a bit, so don’t eat them!).
Step 5
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and top with the remaining cookie pieces.
Place the pan in the refrigerator and chill for 4 to 6 hours, or until the fudge is completely set.
Step 6
Holding onto the foil, remove the block of fudge from the pan and place it onto a flat surface. The foil will easily peel off the fudge on the sides and bottom! I was able to immediately place the pan back into my cupboard, as there was not a bit of food on it!
Place the fudge onto a cutting board and cut into 1-inch squares. Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator.
See? BEST FUDGE EVER. You’re welcome!

My favorite Holiday cooking tip: Don't have buttermilk for a recipe? Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to a cup of light cream or evaporated condensed milk, allow it to sit 10 minutes. Use this in your recipe.
My tip is to clean as you go. It saves time.
Cook ahead of time.
My tip is to prepare everything ahead of time.

If your making a cake, cut out wax paper to line your pans. This keeps the cake from sticking to your pan!! [email protected]

My favorite cooking tip is to prep as much of the food ahead of time, such as chopping fruits and veggies to save time on the day of cooking the dishes, or even buy them already chopped at the supermarket.
I use a silpat when making cookies –always. I do not use when making biscotti though the biscotti spreads too much then.
For a big holiday meal, I like to prepare everything the night before and throw in the crock pot and let that do the cooking all day. When it comes to using Pam, when I make spaghetti, I'll spray some Pam in the water while boiling the spaghetti so the noodles don't stick together

My tip is to start early. Bake, cool and pop directly in the freezer to have cookies and breads ready for the holidays.
Make more than you think you need!
Prep ahead! and use PAM!
Find someone else to clean up the mess!

When you are boiling anything, it will boil faster if you have a lid on the pot.
Use a slow cooket so you won't be rushed at the end of the day.
