BAKING TIP: While this recipe is easy, this cookie dough fudge needs to be chilled for a few hours to set properly, so it’s best to plan ahead.

How To Make Cookie Dough Fudge

Make the edible cookie dough according to the recipe. Roll the dough into small 1-inch (2.5 cm) balls.

Heat the condensed milk and chocolate chips in a saucepan over low heat and stir continuously until the chocolate has melted and you achieve a smooth consistency.

Pour the chocolate fudge mixture into a parchment paper-lined pan or dish and spread it evenly with a spatula. Gently press the cookie dough balls into the soft fudge.

Let the fudge sit at room temperature for an hour, followed by 3 hours to overnight in the fridge. Cut into squares and enjoy!

BAKING TIP: Make sure to chill the cookie dough fudge for a minimum of 3 hours, preferably overnight. This helps the fudge to firm up enough so that you can cut into it cleanly.

Storing Cookie Dough Fudge

You can store this cookie dough fudge in an airtight container inside/outside the refrigerator, and it will keep for about a week.

Can I freeze cookie dough fudge?

Yes. Wrap the individual pieces of fudge in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container or freezer bag. The fudge will last up to 3 months. If you take it out of the freezer, let it thaw in the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature before serving.

Is the cookie dough safe to eat?

Absolutely! This edible cookie dough recipe contains no eggs and the flour is heat-treated first before being combined with the rest of the ingredients.

Do I need to use a candy thermometer?

No, you don’t need a candy thermometer. You’re not boiling sugar to a specific stage, you’re just melting chocolate with condensed milk over low heat until smooth. The condensed milk does the work, so it sets perfectly without any thermometer.

Why is my fudge still soft?

This usually happens if the mixture didn’t heat long enough for the chocolate to fully melt and bind with the condensed milk. Make sure everything is completely smooth before pouring it into the prepared pan. You must also chill the fudge in the fridge for a minimum of 3 hours, preferably overnight, to ensure it firms up properly.

How many pieces of fudge does this recipe make?

I’ve managed to cut 45 pieces of fudge from the recipe, but you can also cut larger or smaller pieces which will change the total number of pieces.
