Snowfall White Chocolate Sugar Cookie Fudge: A Winter-Inspired Indulgence

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

Snowfall White Chocolate Sugar Cookie Fudge is a luxurious, melt-in-your-mouth treat that captures the cosy sweetness of winter in every bite. This recipe combines creamy white chocolate with the comforting flavour of sugar cookies, producing a confection that is both festive and wonderfully indulgent. What I love most is how effortlessly it comes together—no advanced candy-making techniques required. I once substituted half the white chocolate with vanilla baking chips, and the flavour remained beautifully balanced while adding a slightly deeper vanilla aroma. Whether you prepare it for a holiday gathering, a homemade gift box, or simply to enjoy with a warm drink on a cold evening, this fudge delivers elegance and nostalgia in equal measure.

Ingredients

(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)

White Chocolate Chips provide the smooth, creamy base essential for the fudge’s texture and sweetness.

Sweetened Condensed Milk adds richness and helps bind the mixture without requiring traditional sugar syrup.

Butter enhances creaminess and ensures a silky finish.

Sugar Cookie Crumbs infuse the mixture with classic cookie flavour and add a delightful subtle texture.

Vanilla Extract deepens the flavour and creates a warm, inviting aroma.

Salt balances the sweetness and rounds out the flavour profile.

Festive Sprinkles give the fudge its snowfall-inspired appearance and add a hint of crunch.

Directions

Begin by lining an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, ensuring the edges overhang for easy removal. In a medium saucepan, combine the white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and butter. Warm the mixture over low heat, stirring continuously to prevent scorching. Continue mixing until everything melts into a smooth, glossy consistency.

Once fully melted, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Gently fold in the sugar cookie crumbs, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture without overmixing. Pour the fudge into the prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Immediately scatter festive sprinkles across the surface, pressing them lightly so they adhere. Allow the fudge to cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes before transferring it to the refrigerator. Chill for at least two hours or until fully set. Once firm, lift the fudge from the dish using the parchment overhang and cut into neat squares. Serve chilled for the best texture.
