Instructions
Prepare the Fudge Base:
- Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a bit of an overhang for easy removal later.
- Melt the White Chocolate and Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips and butter together over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the Powdered Sugar: Gradually sift in the powdered sugar, stirring until fully combined. The mixture should be thick and smooth.
- Add the Heavy Cream: Stir in the heavy cream until the fudge mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Fold in the Crushed Sugar Cookies: Gently fold the crushed sugar cookies into the fudge mixture. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the cookie pieces intact.
Chill the Fudge:
- Transfer to the Pan: Pour the fudge mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it out evenly.
- Add Sprinkles (Optional): If you want to add some color and fun, sprinkle some sprinkles on top of the fudge before chilling.
- Chill: Refrigerate the fudge for at least 1 to 1.5 hours, or until it is firm and set.
