Oreo Fudge Ingredients + Notes
(Ingredients at a glance, you’ll find the full recipe with ingredient amounts in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post.)
- Sugar | White granulated sugar.
- Butter | Unsalted.
- Evaporated Milk | I use Evaporated milk in many of my recipes. Evaporated milk has been cooked to reduce its water content and it can be cooked at high temperatures without curdling, so it is great to use in candy and fudge recipes.
- White chocolate chips | Make sure to use a good brand that you enjoy eating straight out of the bag since the white chocolate flavor is a star of this fudge. Choose a higher quali brand like Ghirardelli since this flavor is key to a delicious tasting fudge. My favorites to use are Nestle Premier White Morsels, Ghiradelli White Chocolate Chips, or the white candy chips from Hobby Lobby (look for the bright white ones.)
- Marshmallow Creme | (Also called marshmallow fluff). Marshmallow fluff is a fluffy, sticky confection similar to the texture of melted marshmallows, but it doesn’t firm up because it’s made without gelatin. If you can’t find Marshmallow Fluff you can substitute it with regular marshmallows and corn syrup. For 1 cup marshmallow cream heat 16 large or 160 miniature marshmallows + 2 tsp corn syrup in the top of a double boiler.
- Oreos | Any type of chocolate sandwich cookie works in this recipe. To crush the Oreos, place them in a ziploc bag and roll with a rolling pin or crush with the flat part of a cooking utensil. For the larger pieces, I like to chop with a sharp knife.
How to make oreo fudge – Step by Step
- In a saucepan, bring sugar, butter, and evaporated milk to a boil stirring constantly; over med heat. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes, stirring continuously.
- Remove saucepan from heat; stir the white chocolate chips.
- Add marshmallow creme.
- Keep stirring until the mixture is completely melted and smooth.
- Gently fold 3/4 of the crumbled cookies into the white chocolate mixture until just incorporated.

Recipe Tips:
- Make sure to remove the pan from the heat once you have added the chocolate chips. Overheating the chips could cause the chocolate to separate.
- Cutting Fudge: Use a Very Sharp Knife. To avoid the fudge from crumbling, make sure it is completely set and use a very sharp knife.
- Use Parchment Paper: Make sure to line your pan with parchment paper. This makes the fudge much easier to remove from the pan and cut.
- Wait to cut your fudge until you are ready to serve or gift it. Fudge will dry out quickly once cut.
- A candy thermometer is not really needed for this recipe. However, if you are having trouble getting your fudge to set, you may want to confirm you are cooking it for the correct amount of time/temp. There are two ways to do this, one, check the fudge temperature with a thermometer, once the thermometer reads around 237 F, it will set. Another way is to check to see if the butter/sugar/milk mixture has reached the soft-ball stage. (Here is a great video on what the soft-ball stage looks like.)
Recipe Variations
- Use Golden Oreos in place of the chocolate.
- Chocolate Chip Cookies.
- Nutter Butter Cookies.
- Chopped up pecan pralines.
- Lemon Sandwich Cookies. Just about any cookie or candy would work with this recipe.
FAQ’s
What Type Of White Chocolate Should I Use To Make Oreo Fudge?
Choose white chocolate chips that you enjoy eating straight out of the package. You can use either white chocolate chips, or white candy melts.
- If you don’t enjoy eating the candy straight out of the package, do not use it for this easy fudge recipe.
- I don’t recommend using pure white chocolate as it is made with cocoa butter. Cocoa butter contains additional natural oils and can be finicky to work with and definitely requires a candy thermometer to ensure it sets properly. My favorite white chocolate chips to use are Nestle Premier White Morsels, Ghiradelli White Chocolate Chips, or the white candy chips from Hobby Lobby (look for the bright white ones for the prettiest fudge. )
Can I Double This Recipe?
Go for it, no changes are needed other than a larger pan. (Use a 9 by 13 for thinner fudge or 9 by 9 for thicker fudge.) And maybe a bit more of an arm workout.
How To Store Oreo Fudge
- Store your fudge in an airtight container on the counter for 3-5 days. I don’t recommend storing fudge in the fridge as it will dry out very quickly.
- To freeze your fudge, wrap tightly with plastic wrap and again with aluminum foil. Freeze for up to 3 months.
Can I Make This Recipe In The Microwave?
If you want to make a microwave version of this fudge, there is another recipe that is just white chocolate chips, sweetened condensed milk, and Oreos that you could use. I personally prefer this stovetop recipe and truthfully, the amount of time needed is about the same.
